Geoff planted dahlias in his garden. Dahlias have bulbs that divide and reproduce underground. In the first year, Geoff’s garden produced 4 bulbs. In the second year, it produced 8 bulbs, and in the third year, it produced 16 bulbs. If this pattern continues, how many bulbs should Geoff expect in the tenth year?

Answer:

I think it's A). 2,048

Step-by-step explanation:

I did the problem.

4 * 2 = 8 2nd year

8 * 2 = 16 3rd year

16 * 2 = 32 4th year

32 * 2 = 64 5th year

64 * 2 = 128 6th year

128 * 2 = 256 7th year

256 * 2 = 516 8th year

516 * 2 = 1024 9th year

1024 * 2 = 2048 10th year

If 2048 isn't correct, than the answer is B?. 1,024
