Suppose a computer virus begins by infecting 8 computers in the first hour after it is released. Each hour after that, each newly infected computer causes 8 more computers to become infected. The function y = 8x models this situation. Make a table with integer values of x from 1 to 4.

Verified Answer :

______
y = 8x
x = 4
y = 8
4 = 32


The table would look like this:
