Chap. 2: Ingredients of Change: Nonlinear Models2.1: Exponential Functions & Models: Objectives: The student should be able to: • find percentage changes of a set of data, • analyze the end behavior of a data set and determine a limiting value (if one exists), • use scatter plots and consider end behavior to help determine when a data set is linear, exponential, or logistic, • use technology to fit an exponential or logistic model to data, • build exponential models of the forms abx and aekx, • interpret the parameters of an exponential model (growth or decay, (continued)
