Question 12

An algorithm on a social media site is set up so that the more shares a video receives, the more individuals the video is presented to on their feed. The views of a particular video are increasing at an exponential rate of 100% for each share the video receives. If the video originated with 10 views, the situation can be modeled by the exponential equation vs=102s where v is the number of views for every s shares.

Question 12

An algorithm on a social media site is set up so that the more shares a video receives, the more individuals the video is presented to on their feed. The views of a particular video are increasing at an exponential rate of 100% for each share the video receives. If the video originated with 10 views, the situation can be modeled by the exponential equation vs=102s where v is the number of views for every s shares.

Using the graph, predict how many views a video would get with 5 shares.

To predict how many views a video would get with 5 shares, we can substitute s = 5 into the exponential equation:

v = 10 * 2^5
v = 10 * 32
v = 320

Therefore, the video would have 320 views with 5 shares.
