Question

Karim sent a chain email to 10 of his friends. The number of people who got the email increases by a factor of 1.41.41, point, 4 every week. Which expression gives the number of people who got the email after 666 weeks?

Answer 1

Answer:

After 6 weeks the number of people who had the email will be $(1.4)^{5} \times 10$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, there were 10 people who had the email.

Now, every week, the number of people who got the email increases by a factor of 1.4.

Therefore, after the first week, the number of people who had the email was 1.4 × 10.

After the second week, the number of people who had the email was (1.4)² × 10, and so on.

Hence, after 6 weeks the number of people who had the email will be $(1.4)^{(6 - 1)} \times 10 = (1.4)^{5} \times 10$. (Answer)
