Answer: answer C is correct or 1,808 meters squared
Step-by-step explanation:
All direct proportional graphs go through the origin (0,0). So this is where one point could go. The second point is found by going up 5 units and then to the right 3 units to get to (3,5)
<h3>Draw a straight line through (0,0) and (3,5) to graph</h3>
The equation of this line is y = (5/3)x
5 because if you multiply the previous value by 5, you get the next answer
The exponential equation of the model is A(t) = 2583 * 0.88^t and the multiplier means that the number of new cases in a week is 88% of the previous week
<h3>The function that models the data</h3>
The given parameters are:
New, A(t) = 2000
Rate, r = 12%
The function is represented as:
A(t) = A * (1 - r)^t
So, we have:
2000 = A * (1 - 12%)^t
This gives
2000 = A * (0.88)^t
2 weeks ago implies that;
t = 2
So, we have:
2000 = A * 0.88^2
Evaluate
2000 = A * 0.7744
Divide by 0.7744
A = 2583
Substitute A = 2583 in A(t) = A * 0.88^t
A(t) = 2583 * 0.88^t
Hence, the exponential equation of the model is A(t) = 2583 * 0.88^t
<h3>The interpretation of the multiplier</h3>
In this case, the multiplier is 88% or 0.88
This means that the number of new cases in a week is 88% of the previous week
