To represent the third term in the geometric sequence from the given table, we look for the values corresponding to the third minute.

From the table:

  • At 3 minutes, the number of messages sent is 27.

Therefore, the point that should be graphed to represent the third term in the geometric sequence is:

(3, 27)

So, the correct response is (3,27).
