Cal and I worked on understanding exponents and exponential functions. It was important for me to reiterate the Cal the use of a function in math and how the symbols used to express a function can be interchanged without impacting the math for the function. We worked through problems related to both exponential growth and exponential decay. Cal also read through the beginning of Chapter 9 on the difference between a monomial and a polynomial expression. We worked mainly graphing several linear binomial equations, however Cal was also introduced to the graphical expressions resulting from trinomial equations such as a quadratic equation. Toward the end of the time, Cal worked to graph an exponential equation in x-y- coordinates.
