Gianna Munoz · Answer 1

10 Times

Step-by-step explanation:

From the statement "Each category in the tablet is 5 time brighter than the category above it." It can be inferred that the brightest portion of the day must be 5 times the less bright day. This means that:

Dim = 2

Brightest = 5 times dim

= 5 * 2

= 10

Miriam Preston · Answer 2

If you could put in the tablet.

But the equation would be: a_n = a_1 (r) ^ (x-1)

with a_1 being the first category

r being 5 how much brighter than the day before is

and x is what nr. in the sequence it is

But I'm not sure as I cannot see the table
