On-line, Ben was late due to He and his Father went to purchase a new camera for his computer. We practiced several multiplication facts for ten minutes.
6-3 Exponential Growth and Decay – We learned to construct exponential growth and decay functions given a description of a relationship. Then we recognized if a situation can be modeled with exponential growth or decay, and interpreted the parameters of the model in context. Next we became familiar with the terms compound interest, exponential growth, and growth factor.

6-3 Exponential Growth and Decay – We learned that an exponential growth function increases by a fixed percent and an exponential decay function decreases by a fixed percent over each interval. Next we learned that exponential growth and decay functions can be used to model many real-world situations.

6-2 Exponential Functions – We learned to sketch graphs showing key features of exponential functions. Then we wrote exponential functions using tables and graphs. Next we compared linear and exponential functions.
