I’m pretty sure the answer would be -2
54 divided by -3 is -18 and -18 divided by -3 is 6. i think the rule is dividing by -3
Surface area = 2(6*3) + 2(6*2) + 2*(2*3) = 36+24+12 = 72 cm^2
The explicit formula of the function d(n) is 
<h3>How to determine the explicit formula?</h3>
The function is given as:
d(1) = 2.7
d(n) = d(n-1) x (6.1)
The above means that the function is an exponential function, and it has the following parameters:
First term, d(1) = 2.7
Common ratio, r = 6.1
The explicit formula of an exponential function is:

So, we have

Hence, the explicit formula of d(n) is
