F. A virus will typically spread exponentially at first if there is no immunization available. Each infected person can infect multiple new people. SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) and Ebola are two such viruses whose impact to affected areas can be devastating. Knowing the rate at which they typically spread is important when you are trying to contain and treat an outbreak. Suppose you are working at an international aid organization and there are simultaneous outbreaks of SARS and Ebola. Your organization has only enough resources to travel to and help in one location. Do you rush to help the SARS infected community or the Ebola? There have been 30 cases reported in the SARS outbreak so far and SARS has an infection rate of 4% per day. Ebola, meanwhile, has only been reported in one person. The infection rate for Ebola is 11% per day. How many people will become infected with each after 15 days? Use the function f(x) = i. (r + 1)* i: initial infected amount r: infection rate as a decimal x: amount of days
