The equation N(t) = 1700 / (1 + 169e^(-0.625t)) models the number of people in a school who have heard a rumor after t days.
To find out how many people started the rumor, we need to look at the initial value of N(t), which occurs when t = 0.
N(0) = 1700 / (1 + 169e^(-0.625*0))
N(0) = 1700 / (1 + 169e^(0))
N(0) = 1700 / (1 + 169*1)
N(0) = 1700 / 170
N(0) = 10
Therefore, 10 people started the rumor.
