Army Flu (Historic) The number of deaths among members of the U.S. Army in the first 3 months of the 1918 influenza epidemic can be modeled as

where t is the number of weeks after the start of the epidemic, based on data for weeks 0 ≤ t ≤ 13.

a. Numerically estimate, to the nearest integer, the end behavior for A as t increases without bound. Show the numerical estimation table starting at t = 5 and incrementing by adding 5.

b. Write an equation for the horizontal asymptote for A found in part a.

c. Write a sentence interpreting the result found in part a in context. Explain why this result makes sense or why it does not make sense.
