The number of people with the flu during an epidemic is a function, f, of the number of days, d, since the epidemic began. The equation f(d) = 50 - ()" defines f.
a. How many people had the flu at the beginning of the epidemic? Explain how you know.
b. How quickly is the flu spreading? Explain how you can tell from the equation.
c. What does f(1) mean in this situation?
d. Does f(3.5) make sense in this situation?

c

step-by-step explanation:

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2  

x

2  

x

​    

=240

=48
