Answer:

The functions that represent this situation are A and C.

Explanation:

A geometric sequence goes from one term to the next by always multiplying or dividing by the same value.

In geometric sequences, the ratio between consecutive terms is always the same. We call that ratio the common ratio.

This is the explicit formula for the geometric sequence whose first term is k and common ratio is r
