Exploring Linear and Exponential Growth Models
Exploring Linear and Exponential Growth Models
Explore how different contexts show growth or decay, such as percent, dollar amount, or multiplication factor each year. Compare linear and exponential models to see how they change over time.

Pregunta abierta 3
Try modelling a product that increases in value by a factor of 2. Change the first drop down from "increasing" to "decreasing" to model a product that decreases in value by a factor of 2. How does the equation of the model change? Why?
