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
Hey! So, here's a tip. When writing exponents, an easier way is to write a^b, rather than a to the b power. Besides that, here is your answer!
So-------
9^3=729
3^2=9
6^3=216
15^2=225
Now that we have that figured out, we can add them together, wish is simple. 729 + 9 + 216 + 225= 1,179.
Therefore, your final answer will be 1,174.
If you have any questions on this, I'm happy to help you. :)
