Wendy’s family lost power for the longer time than the neighborhood, 68 hours to days would be 2.83 which would be 2.8.
The number of infected people will reach 568 in approximately 4 weeks
<h3>Linear equation and function</h3>
Exponential equations are inverse of logarithmic equation and are represented by the equation below:
y = ab^x
where
a is the base value and x is the exponent
Given the equation that shows the number of infected people from an outbreak of the measles as:
y = 4(6)^t
If the number of infected people reach 568, hence;
568 = 4(6)^t
568/4 = 4(6)^t/4
6^t = 568/4
6^t = 142
Take the natural logarithm of both sides
ln(6^t) = ln142
t = ln142/ln6
t = 4.37
Hence the number of infected people will reach 568 in approximately 4 weeks
