Sorry, the correct answer is 84.
Exponential Growth:
y = a(1 + r)^x.
y = a(1 + r)^x.
y= 36 (1+0.08)^11
y=84.

people fall sick in one day,
8% of 36 = 2.88
people fall sick in 11 days,
36+(2.88 * 11)
= 36 + 31.68
= 67.68
≈ 68
8% of 36 = 2.88
people fall sick in 11 days,
36+(2.88 * 11)
= 36 + 31.68
= 67.68
≈ 68
84 is the correct answer.
