Answer 2

Answer:

D. multiply the previous value by 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The pattern of values as the exponents increase is

1/3, 1, 3, 9

Comparing 1/3 to 1, we either add 2/3 or multiply by 3.

Comparing 1 to 3, we either add 2 or multiply by 3.

Comparing 3 to 9, we either add 6 or multiply by 3.

The constant in this pattern is multiplication by 3.
