A virus is spreading around Summerfield. At the moment, 800 people are infected. If the virus is spreading at a rate of 15% each day, how many people in all will have caught the virus in 12 days? Write an equation to

represent the situation. *

A y=800 (0.85) ^12

B y=800 (0.15) ^12

C y=800 (1.15) ^12

D y=0.85 (800) ^12

E y=0.15 (800) ^12

F y=1.15 (800) ^12

G y = (0.85•800) ^12

H y = (0.15•800) ^12

I y = (1.15•800) ^12
