An exponential or geometric function can be expressed as a power of t, where t is time.  

This means that if you can fit all three values into the formula  

S = S0 * (1+r)^t  

for a constant r, and t=1, 2, 3 (or 0, 1, 2 for simplicity), then it's exponential.  

You can see right away that the first and second sets of numbers are not exponential. These are linear, because each month is a fixed value greater than the previous one.  

If you look at the formula above, you can see that each successive time interval's growth can be calculated by multiplying a fixed value to the previous intervals. For example, the second month is given by:  

S(1) = S0 * (1+r)  

S(2) = S0 * (1+r)^2 = S0 * (1+r) * (1+r) = S(1) * (1+r)  

Since each month's sales is 102% the previous month's in the fourth set, this is the one you want.

A fifth box has pink and yellow ribbons in the same proportion as Sandy’s first four boxes. Which tables could represent box num
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

It could be 32:40.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a constant ratio 4:5 with the ribbons in the boxes, so with a table you would go down multiplying both the numbers by the same to get the answer...

(4:5 x 2 = 8:10... x 3 = 12:15...x 4 = 16:20...etc.)

Hope this helps!

If there is a mistake, please let me know!
