Answer 1

Answer: I recommend starting treatment immediately. If you take more than 8 days to make a decision, the disease can no longer be cured because it will affect more than 50% of the body.

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of the body affected by the disease is a function of the number of days:  

P(d) = 6d + 5

This percentage is a dependent variable and the number of days is the independent variable.

If we give values to d, we can calculate the percentage of the body affected by the disease.

P(1)= 6·1 + 5 = 11%

P(2)= 6·2 + 5 = 17%

P(3)= 6·3 + 5 = 23%

P(4)= 6·4 + 5 = 29%

P(5)= 6·5 + 5 = 35%

P(6)= 6·6 + 5 = 41%

P(7)= 6·7 + 5 = 47%

P(8)= 6·8 + 5 = 53%

Depending on the days since the beginning of the disease, the doctors have a treatment for a different stage.

Starting immediately, the treatment will be stage 1: less than 15%

Starting on day 2 or 3, the treatment will be stage 2: 15-25%

After day 3, the treatment will be stage 3: 25-50%

After day 8, there is no cure: more than 50% of the body is affected by the disease.

I recommend starting treatment immediately. If you take more than 8 days to make a decision, the disease can no longer be cured because it will affect more than 50% of the body.
