John needs 13 bottles of water from the store. john can only carry 3 at a time. what's the minimum number of trips john needs to make to the store?
a. 3 b. 4 c. 4 1/2 d.5 e.6

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.

236 cm 16 time 12 = 192

6 times 7 = 42

192+42
