Using the model y = 1x + 1, where x represents the number of minutes, we can substitute x = 11 into the equation:
y = 1(11) + 1
y = 11 + 1
y = 12
Therefore, in 11 minutes, there would be a total of 12 people infected with strain B.
Strain B started with a genetic mutation in patient zero that caused them to turn into a zombie. This strain differs from A in that all zombies can infect new people. Zombies infected with strain B can infect 1 person every minute.

The equation you entered to model this strain is:
`y=1x+1`
Using this model or the table, or the graph, determine how many people would be infected in 11 minutes.
