The growth of a bug population shows a geometric sequence as shown in the table. This pattern continues indefinitely. What will the population be on Week 20?♦about 1,496,366♦about 997,577♦about 665,051♦about 464,758
Question
Answer:
The common ratio is,r= 450/300 = 3/2
nth term of geometric series is given by,
a[tex] _{n} [/tex] = a₁r[tex] ^{n-1} [/tex]
a₂₀ = 300(3/2)¹⁹ = 665051
