In the question, there are certain information's that are of immense importance in regards to finding the answer. The first information is that Jose Rivera had purchased 7 textbooks for his classes at River Run Community College. The price that Jose Rivera had to pay was $208.55. The average cost per textbook needs to be found.
The cost of 7 textbooks purchased by Jose Rivera = 208.55 dollars
Then
The cost of 1 textbook purchased by Jose Rivera = (208.55/7) dollars
= 29.79 dollars
The average cost of a textbook purchased by Jose Rivera rounded to the nearest cent is 29.80 dollars.
Answer: The correct option is (D) 196608.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the value of the 9th term in the following geometric sequence :
3, 12, 48, 192, . . .
We know that
the n-th term of a geometric sequence with first term a and common ratio r is given by

For the given sequence, we have
first term, a = 3 and the common ratio, r is given by

Therefore, the 9th term of the given sequence will be

Thus, the required 9th term of the given sequence is 196608.
Option (D) is CORRECT.
