The number of infections in week 8 will be 172 people

<h3>How to know an exponential table? </h3>

An exponential function is defined by the formula f(x) = aˣ, where the input variable x occurs as an exponent.

According to the reports, the reported infections are growing at a rate of 20%.

Therefore, the exponential function is as follows:

A = 40(1 + 20%)ⁿ

where

  • n = number of weeks

Hence,

Number people = 40(1 + 0.2)ⁿ

when n = 8 weeks

A = 40 (1 + 0.2)⁸

A = 40 (1.2)⁸

A = 40(4.29981696)

A = 171.9926784

A = 172

Therefore, the number of infections in week 8 is 172 people.
