Part A: The exponential function is the best model for the given data. The data shows that every month the number of visitor approximately doubles from previous month. In other words the number is some base value (2, in this case) with the number of month (t) being in the exponent. This the a key characteristic of an exponential growth.
Part B: (also explained above). Every month the number of visitors approximately doubles. Starting with 5.74 at month 8, the numbers goes up by about the same amount to 12.0 at month 9. At month 10, a similar increase occurs (doubling would be 24, and the data shows 25, so this is all "aproximate"). This trend continues throughout the table.
Part C:
Month 7 will be estimated as half of month 8 (going backward):
Month 7: 5.74/2=2.87
Estimate for month 7 = 2.87 thousand visitors.
Answer: If the initial term of an arithmetic sequence is a 1 and the common difference of successive members is d, then the nth term of the sequence is given by: a n = a 1 + (n - 1)d The sum of the first n terms S n of an arithmetic sequence is calculated by the following formula: S n = n (a 1 + a n)/2 = n [2a 1 + (n - 1)d]/2

I believe it is the 2nd one its the most logical
Answer:
The scaled surface area of a square pyramid to the original surface area.
The scaled area of a triangle to the original area.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that we have a cube with sidelength M.
if we rescale this measure with a scale factor 8, we get 8*M
Now, if previously the area of one side was of order M^2, with the rescaled measure the area will be something like (8*M)^2 = 64*M^2
This means that the ratio of the surfaces/areas will be 64.
(and will be the same for a pyramid, a rectangle, etc)
Then the correct options will be the ones related to surfaces, that are:
The scaled surface area of a square pyramid to the original surface area.
The scaled area of a triangle to the original area.
