B is correct. Substitute the week number for w in the function. Follow order of operations and you should get you N, the number of fruit flies for that week. For instance week 2:
N= 2(5)^2-1
N=2(5)^1
N=2(5)
N= 10
N= 10 corresponds to the table
I think it would be 10,200
(-5+8*i)+(-9+5*i) evaluates to <span>-14+13i</span>
The slope of the line that passes through those points is: B) -1/2
