Answer:

The top choice is the answer. a1=7; an= 3*a_(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by finding out what the terms are multiplied by. It is a geometric sequence so multiplication is involved.

Take the 3rd term (63) and divide it by the second term.

63/21 = 3

What this means is that each term in the sequence is multiplied by 3 to get to the next term.

The first term is 7

So the answer is an = 3* a_n-1

The answer must be the top one. See if it works.

a2 = 3*a_(2 -1 )

a2 = 3 * a1

a2 = 3 * 7

a2 = 21 which it does.

Find an exponential model : Q is the population of bacteria in a Petri dish whose population was originally 150,000 but is tripl
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

150,000*3^t for 6 hour increments (t=1 is 6 hours t=2 is 12)

150,000*3^(t/6) for hourly increments, each t is 1 hour.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Well super simply you could do 150,000*3^t where t is measured in 6 hour intervals.  so t=1 is 6 hours, and to get 1 hour you would need to do t=1/6

If you want t to be an increase of every hour you would just need to adjust, like I showed before 1/6 gets one hour so 150,000*3^(t/6) would be the model where every t increases by 1 hour.
