Pitanje 5

5.

In your graph of the data in Part One, how can a person see this minimum number of cancer cells? That is, where does it show up on the graph?

7.

Which is the independent variable? (This is the part that changes on its own)

Pitanje 8

8.

Which is the dependent variable? (This is the part that only changes when the independent variable changes)

Pitanje 10

10.

What is the range values for the relationship in the simulation? (This is all the numbers from the dependent variable group)

Pitanje 11

11.

On the graph of the simulation data in #3, would it make sense to connect the data points? Why or why not?

Pitanje 12

12.

What would a generation number of 3.5 mean in the context of the simulation?

Pitanje 13

13.

Enter your data into Stapplet.
What type of function best models the simulation data?

Linear

Quadratic

Exponential

Pitanje 14

14.

Using your results from Stapplet, write the equation that would model your data.

Pitanje 15

15.

Graph your equation from #14 in Desmos and compare to the scatter plot you took a screenshot of on #3. Did the results look similar?

Pitanje 19

19.

How many cancer cells does the model predict there would be after 25 generations? Explain.

Pitanje 20

20.

How many cancer cells does the model predict there would be after 50 generations? Explain.

Pitanje 23

23.

How many generations will it take to reach 1 Billion cancer cells?
(One billion cells would be a tumor with a 2-cm diameter.)

Pitanje 24

24.

What is the growth factor of your model?

Pitanje 25

25.

How would the model change if the simulation started with seven M&Ms for Generation 0? Explain your thinking.

Pitanje 26

26.

How would the model change if three M&Ms were added for each M&M appearing face up? Explain your thinking.
