Math Standards
Aligned with common core standards. Distinguish between situations that can be modeled with linear functions and with exponential functions. Prove that linear functions grow by equal differences over equal intervals, and that exponential functions grow by equal factors over equal intervals. Recognize situations in which a quantity grows or decays by a constant. Florida's B.E.S.T. standards MA.912.AR.5.3 Given a mathematical or real-world context, classify an exponential function as representing growth or decay. MA.912.AR.5.4 Write an exponential function to represent a relationship between two quantities from a graph, a written description or a table of values within a mathematical or real-world context.
