Algebra 2 7-1 Complete Lesson: Exploring Exponential Models

Algebra 2 7-1 Complete Lesson: Exploring Exponential Models

Problem 1 Got It? Graph the functions in the same coordinate plane using contrasting colors. Include all relevant graph detail and label the functions. Graph the functions by hand first, but you may check your graphs with Desmos and make edits as needed.

Problem 1 Got It? Reasoning: What generalization(s) can you make about the domain, range, and y-intercepts of these functions? Select all that apply.

Problem 2 Got It?

Problem 2 Got It?

Problem 2 Got It? You put $2000 into a college savings account for four years. The account pays 6% interest annually. Is this situation an example of exponential growth or decay? What is the y-intercept?

Problem 3 Got It? Suppose you invest $500 in a savings account that pays 3.5% annual interest. How much will be in the account after five years?

Problem 4 Got It? Suppose you invest $500 in a savings account that pays 3.5% annual interest. When will the account contain at least $650?

Problem 4 Got It? Reasoning: Use the table in Problem 4 (provided again below) to determine when that account will contain at least $1650. Explain.

a. Sketch the function on the canvas below by hand using the blue pen toolb. Graph the function on the embedded Desmos graphing calculator abovec. Sketch a copy of the Desmos graph below using the red pen tool on the same plane as your blue sketch (it is okay if your graphs overlap, that's good!)

Error Analysis: A classmate says that the function shown has a growth factor of 0.3. What is the student's mistake?

Review Lesson 6-8: Graph the function. Zoom and pan your graph to establish an appropriate viewing window.

Review Lesson 6-8: Graph the function on the canvas. Consider creating a table of values or translating the parent function. Include relevant graph detail.

Review Lesson 4-4: Factor the expression completely.

Review Lesson 3-6: Solve the system of equations using a matrix. Matrix frame rectangles have been added to the canvas for your convenience, along with a some matrix elements in blue. Complete your work using contrasting colors.

Review Lesson 7-1: Graph each function in the same plane. Zoom and pan your graph to establish an appropriate viewing window.

Vocabulary Review: Identify the expressions that are NOT powers. Select all that apply.

Vocabular Review: Match the number(s) on the left with the expression(s) on the right that contain them as exponents.

Use Your Vocabulary: Identify the equations that represent exponential decay. Select all that apply.

Use Your Vocabulary: Use an appropriate number from the left to fill in each blank on the right and create equations representing exponential decay.
