Four lab rats stage a daring escape in broad daylight, eventually establishing a colony behind the laboratory's parking garage. After one month, the population of the colony has risen to eight rats. After two months, the population is sixteen; after three months, thirty-two, and so on. If the pattern continues, how many months will it take for the colony population to reach 1,024 rats?

Asequence has its first term equal to 4, and each term of the sequence is obtained by adding 2 to the previous term. if f(n) represents the nth term of the sequence, which of the following recursive functions best defines this sequence? (1 point) f(1) = 2 and f(n) = f(n − 1) + 4; n > 1 f(1) = 4 and f(n) = f(n − 1) + 2n; n > 1 f(1) = 2 and f(n) = f(n − 1) + 4n; n > 1 f(1) = 4 and f(n) = f(n − 1) + 2; n > 1 i will award !
