Perspective



You are a ghost driving a meat-covered skeleton made from stardust riding a rock floating through space.

Exponential Functions – What You Need to Know

Image
Exponential models are useful in a number of real-world scenarios, from predicting declines in population to forecasting growth in asset values. This can all get rather complicated, and both the SAT and ACT require some familiarity with exponential functions.  Fortunately, only knowledge of bare basics is required.  Following is a list of things you need to know about exponential functions.  - Simple definition Exponential functions have an unknown in the exponent. Exponential functions – general form y = A*B^x. x is usually time, t. Constants A is the “initial value” (y when x=0). B is the “multiplier.” Growth factor B = (1±r), where r is rate of growth/decay. (Time and rate units must match). Parent Graph Rising curve through (0,A). Horizontal asymptote y = 0. - For practice, search Google for worksheets covering any or all of the above, pick a worksheet that provides answers, complete the worksheet, analyze any mistakes, and redo it until you can complete that workshee...
