To determine the point that should be graphed to represent the third term in the geometric sequence from the table, we'll first review the values given.
In the table:
- At 0 minutes, there are 0 messages sent.
- At 1 minute, there are 3 messages sent.
- At 2 minutes, there are 9 messages sent.
- At 3 minutes, there are 27 messages sent.
- At 4 minutes, there are 81 messages sent.
The third term in the sequence refers to the value at the time of the third minute, which is 2 minutes in the context of the sequence (0 minutes is the first term, 1 minute is the second term, and 2 minutes is the third term).
From the table:
- At 2 minutes (third term), the messages sent is 9.
Thus, the point that should be graphed to represent the third term in the geometric sequence is (2, 9).
