PPT-Exponential Functions

Exponential Growth Functions If a quantity increases by the same proportion r in each unit of time then the quantity displays exponential growth and can be modeled by the equation Where C initial amount. Understanding the difference. Linear equations. These equations take the form:. . y. = . mx. + . b. . . m. is the slope of the line. . b. is the value of . y. when . x. = 0 . (the . y. - . Reva .

Exponential Growth. Exponential growth. occurs when an quantity increases by the same rate . r. in each period . t. . When this happens, the value of the quantity at any given time can be calculated as a function of the rate and the original amount. .

Although Linear Regression is a powerful tool, not all relationships between two quantities are linear. (See scatterplots in figure 5.28).
