Ben shared his post with 2 friends. each of those friends shares with 3 more every day, so the number of shares triples every day. write an exponential function to represent the spread of ben's social media post.

I believe that an exponential function that represents this problem would be y=2x^3

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.

25% is the answer
