Concept 12 Test (part 1) Taken in Class Today

We concluded our discussion about exponential growth and decay by noticing that when the base of the power is greater than 1, the graph shows an increase, while if the base of the power is a decimal number (between 0 and 1), the graph shows a decay or decrease. We reviewed how the compounding period (annually, semi-annually, quarterly, or daily) impacts the amount of interest earned. Students then took a quick 10 minutes quiz over graphing square root functions. This is part of Concept Test #12. More of the test will be taken next week.

Tonight's Homework: Home Book, pg. 90-92 (1-14 and 62-67) and 100-101 (60-77). Be sure to prepare for the 10 minute quiz you'll take on Monday over exponential growth and decay. Bring your calculator!
