  2. Great Offer ! • Your Uncle Al, Cousin Gee, and Auntie Braa each make you an offer you can’t refuse. • Each wants to give you $$$ every month until you graduate. • Your parents will only let you select one of the offers. • Which offer should you choose if each relative is increasing the size of the payments monthly? Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  3. Here are the choices: • Uncle Al pays $1 the first month (June this year) and adds 2 additional dollars with every new monthly payment. • Cousin Gee pays 1 cent the first month (June this year) and doubles the payment every month. • Auntie Braa pays 50 cents the first month (June this year), and adds$1.50 more to the2nd payment, $2.50 more to the 3rd month, $3.50 more to the 4th month, and so on.

Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  25. Y = 2^x Exponential Functions • Variable is the exponent • base >0 • and base = 1. • y = b^x is the parent function. Y = 3^x Y = 4^x Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  26. Y = 2^x What if 0<b<1 ? • Variable is the exponent • base >0 • and base = 1. • y = b^x is the parent function. Y = .2^x Y = .5^x Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  27. Summary of base y = b ^x • B is never negative • B is not 1 • when B is between 0 and 1, the function decreases always (decay ) • when B is bigger than 1, the function increases always (growth) Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  28. Exponential Decay • Certain radioactive elements decay over time…. Half life is the time to decrease 1/2 of the amount. B< 1 but B>0. • This fraction is the rate of decrease. Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  29. Exponential Growth • In nature, uninhibited, uncontrolled grow is exponential. B > 1 • This B is the rate of increase. Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  30. Exponential Growth and Decay • More examples: • serum blood drug levels • atmospheric pressure • light absorption in seawater • compound interest growth • inflation rates Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  31. Transformations of y = 2^x • Y = 2^x + 1 • moves up 1 • y = 2^x -1 • moves down 1 Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  32. Transformations of y = 2^x • Y = 2^(x + 1) • moves 1 left • y = 2^(x -1) • moves 1 right Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  33. Transformations of y = 2^x • Y =3* 2^x • vertical stretch • y = .2*2^x • vertical shrink Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  34. Transformations of y = 2^x • Y =-( 2^x) • flips over x • y = 2^(-x) • flips over y Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  35. Solving exponential equations • Y = b ^x : 3 different unknowns • Y = 2 ^3 • y = 8 • 25 = 5 ^x • x = 2 Just cube Just find square root • 100 = b ^2 • b= 10 This is the tricky one ! Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  36. Solving exponential equations We need an inverse operation like squares and square roots • 25 = 5 ^x • x = 2 102 = 2 ^x ? Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  37. Solving exponential equations Logarithms ( logs for short !) are the inverses of exponentials 102 = 2 ^x ? Log2 102 = x Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center

  38. Limitations of your calculator • It only knows log with base 10 and log with base e. • log = log with base 10 • ln = log with base e • To do other logs, use the change of base formula: y = logab = log a / log b Exponential and Log Functions B. Davis MathScience Innovation Center
