Respuesta :

Answer:

Number of cards at week n = 10,000(0.85)^(n-1).

At week 6  Dylan has 4437 cards.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the start of week 1 he had 10,000 = 10,000(0.85)^0  cards.

So at the start of week 2 he had 10,000(0.85)^(2-1) cards.

Number of  cards for week n =  10,000(0.85)^(n-1).

Number of he will have at the start of the 6th week

= 10,000(0.85)^(6-1)

=  4437 cards (answer).
