A student studying to be a veterinarian’s assistant keeps track of a kitten’s weight each week for a 5 -week period after birth. a. Based on the data given, does the weight of the kitten follow an arithmetic progression? b. Write an expression for the n th term of the sequence representing the kitten's weight, n weeks after birth. c. If the weight of the kitten continues to increase linearly for 3 months, predit the kitten's weight 12 weeks after birth.

Solution Summary: The author explains that the weights of a kitten are in 'arithmetic progression'. The number of the year represents the term number.
Use the properties of logarithms, given that In(2) = 0.6931 and In(3) = 1.0986, to approximate the logarithm. Use a calculator to confirm your approximations. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)
