How many people will become zombies after 11 minutes?

Question

Strain B

The equation you entered to model this strain is:
"y" equals 2 "x"y=2x
Using this model or the table, or the graph, determine how many people would be infected in 11 minutes.

Answer 1

To use the equation \( y = 2^x \) to determine how many people will become infected after 11 minutes, you will need to substitute \( x \) with 11.

So we have: \[ y = 2^{11} \]

Calculating \( 2^{11} \):

\[ 2^{11} = 2048 \]

Therefore, after 11 minutes, \( 2048 \) people will become infected with Strain B.
