Suppose that a local health website says that in a certain week (t = 0) there were 460 cases of some disease. Then t = 4 weeks later there were a total of 505 cases. Assuming an exponential model (meaning, the number of cases increases by some fixed percent each week), find an (exponential) function which outputs the total number of cases t weeks after the given week. f(t) Round values to 6 decimal places. According to this model, the number of cases is increasing by % each week.
