Don't Let Your "ex" Define You
The name of a constant percentage increase of an initial value that increases in value rapidly.
What is Exponential Growth
What happens when the a value in the function
y=abx+c is negative?
What is the function reflects over the horizontal asymptote?
A person answered the following question as shown. They made this fatal error.
A bank account earns 2% interest semi-annually. If you deposit $400, how much will you have in your account after 2 years?
A=400(1+2)4
What is not converting the percentage to a decimal?
The base of a function that shows exponential decay by 30% is this decimal.
What is 0.7?
This is the kind of function in which the base is somewhere in the interval between 0 and 1.
What is exponential decay?
The horizontal shift of the following function.
y=3x+8+2
What is left 8?
A function showing exponential growth has a base of greater than 1. What is wrong with using the function?
A(t)=a(1-r)t
What is subtracting the rate from one, or making the base less than one?
As the x-value of an unshifted decay function approaches infinity, the y-value of the function approaches this value.
What is 0?
The word for the power in which a base is raised to is this.
What is an exponent?
The y-intercept of an unshifted exponential function is always at this particular y-value.
What is y=1?
A person set up the following function as shown below, doing this incorrectly.
You buy a solid block of gold. The value of gold increases about 0.5% every 3 months. If your block of gold was initially worth $4300, how much is it worth after a year?
A=4300(1+0.005)3
What is making the exponent 4?
The initial value of an unshifted decay function is 100. What is the y-intercept of the function?
What is y=100?
In order to be considered this noun, most scholarly belief is that you have acquire a doctorate in a subject.
What is an expert?
The horizontal line an exponential function approaches, called the horizontal asymptote, is this line when you have vertically shifted the graph down 4.
What is y=-4?
Someone determined that to end up with $5000 after a year, in an account that earns 5% interest compounded continuously, they would need to deposit $3433.68 initially.
What should they really deposit?
What is $4756.14?
The more quickly an exponential decay function decreases is determined by the base. This is true about a base that causes decrease the most quickly compared to other bases.
What is it smaller than other bases?
