Note from the author:

You can find online regression calculators at this site in the fourth column.

To compare exponential and linear growth, check out this video.
For some more exponential growth/decay word problems, check out this video.
For even more exponential word problems, check out this video, this video, and the ones in the sidebar.
For an example of a logarithmic scale, check out this video.

Before you panic about the number of questions... There are three graphing problems after #18. So there's really about 20 questions.

Categorize the situations according to the model best suited for them. Feel free to look up some equations.

Put the following functions in decreasing order based on their values as x \rightarrow \infty

Hint: It may help to graph in Desmos and zoom out.

f(x) = (\frac{4}{3})^{-2x}
f(x) = 222x^{2}
f(x) = (\frac{4}{3})^{\frac{1}{2}x}
f(x) = (\frac{4}{3})^{2x}
f(x) = 22x^{2}
f(x) = 222x^{3}

The table shows the value of a car during certain years.  Using an expoential model, write an equation for the curve of best fit, then estimate the value of the car in 2016 (x=8).

1

What is the value of growth/decay rate, as a percent?

Enter your answer as an integer.

1

What is the value of the car in 2016, in dollars?

Use four decimal places for the base.

Enter your answer as a number rounded to two decimal places. For example, if your answer were $12.366, you would enter "12.37".

The table below shows the weights of five females of the same height (5'5") along with their body mass index, BMI.  Using a logarithmic model, write an equation for the curve of best fit, then estimate the BMI of a female that weighs 130 pounds.

According to your model, what is the BMI of a female that weighs 130 lbs?

Enter your answer as a number rounded to two decimal places.

Bonus:
Explain a process you could use to check #6 for reasonableness. You will use the internet.

The notes of a musical scale and their frequencies are given in the table below.  Find the model that would best fit the data, and use the model to estimate the frequency of the note G (x= 7)

Hint:  If you get an error for a function, it is probably not the right one...
