Would you rather have $1 million NOW or 1 penny doubled each day for 30 days? Day 30: $5,368,709.12
Exponential & Logistic Functions Section 3.1
Objective: determine similarities & difference of exponential & logistic functions; identify asymptotes & intercepts in exponential/logisitc functions • How are exponential & logistic functions alike/different?
Exponential Functions f(x) = abx • Variable is in the exponent Growth/Decay Factor Principal Amount (y-intercept)
Growth a>0 b>1 Decay a>0 0<b< 1 f(x) = 5(1.3)x f(x) = 5(0.3)x
Horizontal Asymptote at y = 0 f(x) = abx y ≠ 0
Base “e” e = 2.718… “the natural number” f(x) = aekx Constant value
Analyze each function Analyze each function Ex 1) f(x) = 3(2)x Ex 2) f(x) = 2(4)-x+1 • Growth/Decay? • Transformations • End behavior • Y-intercept
Logistic Function Growth is RESTRICTED (exponential is unrestricted) Limit to Growth “Capacity” b < 1
Analyze each function Ex 1) Ex 2) • Limit to growth • Horizontal Asymptotes • Y-intercept
Graph the function y = 3x • Determine the Domain, Range, and y-intercept D: x is any real number R: y > 0 Y-intercept is at 1
Graph the function y = (0.5)x • Determine the Domain, Range, and y-intercept D: x is any real number R: y > 0 Y-intercept is at 1
Graph the function y = 5(4)x • Determine the Domain, Range, and y-intercept D: x is any real number R: y > 0 Y-intercept is at 5
Graph the function y = -2(3)x • Determine the Domain, Range, and y-intercept D: x is any real number R: y < 0 Y-intercept is at -2
