Question 15 • (OC27) MATH COLL LIB ARTS-1207350-S1-Maguire-D'Aquino

What kind of growth model (pattern) is shown in the table? xy152253125462553,125

Answer
A
square root
B
linear
C
exponential
D
quadratic

Explanation

As x increases by 1, y is multiplied by 5: 5, 25, 125, 625, 3,125. A constant multiplication factor shows exponential growth, described by y = 5^x. Therefore, the pattern is exponential growth.
