1. Pretend that in a certain city the number of new cases of COVID was reported to be 200 new cases on Sunday. Let's pretend that the number of new cases grows by 22% on Monday, and then after that falls by 22% on Tuesday a. What will the number of new cases be on Monday and Tuesday? Don't round for accuracy. (note: we are not talking about totals here, just daily new cases like in the news. So on Sunday there were 200 new cases. Ex: How many new cases did Monday have: Intuitively the answer should be more than 200 new cases bc the new cases grew by 22%.) Monday: Tuesday: b. Notice that 22% growing and 22% falling make 0% in total... or does it? Did the number of new cases from Sunday to Tuesday fall by 0% in total? If not, then what is the total change as a percent? (Be accurate with an answer like 1.23%.) c. What percent would the percent increase have to be on Monday to have a total change of zero% from Sunday to Tuesday? i.e. new covid cases go up by ???% on Monday and then down 22% on Tuesday for a total change of zero%. (Be accurate with an answer like 1.23%
