Answer: 21.87

Step-by-step explanation:

First job = 3 pennies

Second job = 9 pennies 

Third job = 27 pennies 

Do you see the pattern? The pennies are being multiplied by 3 every job or tripling.

Fourth job = 81 pennies

Fifth job = 243 pennies

Sixth job = 729 pennies

Seventh job = 2,187

So the answer would be that after the seventh shoveling job you'd receive 21.87 pennies.

Answer:

Alright so the answer is B but I'll explain why because im nice ig.

Step-by-step explanation:

So lets do some calcumalations.

We'll use 1 as n and should get an output of 3 to check these formulas. Since 1 is the first term and 3 is the first term value makes sense alright.

So 9^1-1 is 0 and any number to the 0 power is 1 so that wont work.

3(4)^1-1 = 3(1); that's the answer

4^1-1 = 1, + 3 = 4 so that wont work either

I hope this helps ya have a great afternoon
