Question

If one person recruits five people and each recruited person recruits 5 more, and so on, 15 cycles; how many people would that be and what would be the equation?

Answer 1

y=5^x

5^15= 30517578125 people

Explanation:

x=# of cycles= 15 cycles

y= #of people recruited = what we're figuring out

Plug in 15 for x in the equation y=5^x

y= 5^15= 30517578125 people
