the number of people with the flu during the epidemic is a function,f, of the number of days,d, since the epidemic began. The equation began. The equation f(d)= 50*(3/2)^d defines f.How quickly is the flu spreading? or what is the exponential growth factor?

Respuesta :

We have that the general exponential formula is:

[tex]f(x)=a\cdot b^x[/tex]

In this case, we have:

[tex]f(d)=50\cdot(\frac{3}{2})^d[/tex]

the term b on the exponential formula is also known as the growth factor. Therefore, in this case the growth factor is b=3/2
