The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional for each ton of sugar transported. Let represent the total cost (in dollars), and let represent the amount of sugar (in tons) transported. Write an equation relating to . Then use this equation to find the total cost to transport tons of sugar.

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.
