Linear and Exponential Functions • Power Functions • Logarithmic Functions • Trigonometric Functions
Linear Function A population of 200 worms increases at the rate of 5 worms per day. How many worms are there after a fifteen days?
Linear Functions Slope m=rise/run Y intercept or value when x=0 Change on y when x increases by 1
Exercise • Find the equation of the line passing through the points (-2,1), (4,5) • Point: • Slope: • Point-Slope form • Slope-Y intercept form
Exponential Growth A population of 200 worms increases at the rate of 5% per day. How many worms are there after fifteen days?
Exponential Growth • Population of Mexico City since 1980 (t=0) Is this a linear function?
Equation from Table Initial Population t=0 Grows at 2.6% per year (100%+2.6% next period) 1.026 = growth factor 1=1+0.026 What is the doubling time?
