Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
The first had 2 dots
The second has 4 dots
The third has 8 dots
The number of dots is doubling each time
D(n) = 2^n
This is a geometric sequence, we are multiplying the number of dots by 2 each time we go to the next stage
The geometric formula is
xn = a r^(n-1) where n is the stage and a is the number in the first stage and r is the common ratio
