Question

Swine Flu is attacking Porkopolis. The function S(t)=9t-4 determines how may people have swine flu where t=time in days and S = number of people in thousands. Find S(4)

Answer 1

you plug t=4 into the equation to get
S(4)= 32

Answer 2

Number of people who will be having flu in 4 days will be 32.

Explanation:

Swine flu is attacking Porkopolis. The function that represents the number of people who have swine flu in t number of days will be

S(t) = 9t - 4

We have to calculate the number of people who suffered from flu in 4 days.

By substituting t = 4

S(4) = 9×4 - 4

= 36 - 4

= 32

Therefore, number of people who will be having flu in 4 days will be 32.
