Question

The spread of a rumor in a town can be modeled as , where N is the number of people who have heard of the rumor, and t is time (in days). How long will it take until 2000 people know about the rumor?

Answer 1

Answer:

the time is 16 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the time period is given below:

N = 500 √t

2000 = 500 √t

√t = 4

Now do the square on both the sides

SO,

t = 16

Hence, the time is 16 days

We simply applied the above method to determine the time period
