Respuesta :

At the end of the fourth month, we would have a total number of 4800 readers. The factor by which the number changes monthly is 2 and we would have 2n number of readers the following month

Data;

  • Initial Number of Readers = 300
  • Factor of Increase  2

The difference in number of people who read from month to month

The difference in number of people who read from month to month will be

[tex]0 = 300\\1 = 2 * 300 = 600\\2 = 2 * 600 = 1200\\3 = 2 * 1200 = 2400\\4 = 2 * 2400 = 4800[/tex]

At the end of the fourth month, we would have a total number of 4800 readers.

The Factor by which the number changes monthly

The factor by which the number changes monthly is 2. From the pervious calculation, we can see a constant increase by a factor of 2 month to month.

If n number of people are reading this month, the number of readers in the next month would be?

Since we already established that the factor by which the readers increase is by two, we can simply say that at the next month, we would have 2n number of readers.

[tex]next month = 2 * n = 2n[/tex]
