Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Nspirations: Exponents and Exponential Functions Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Nspirations: Exponents Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Nspirations: Exponents and Exponential Functions

Almost everyone has an intuitive understanding that exponential growth means rapid growth. Written and hosted by internationally acclaimed math educator Dr. Monica Neagoy, this video builds on students’ intuitive notions, explores exponential notation, and analyzes properties of exponential function graphs, with the help of TI-Nspire features such as sliders and graph transformations. Using exponential functions to model finance applications and a Newton’s law of cooling problem further help students build a solid foundation for these fundamental algebraic concepts. Concepts explored: functions, exponents, exponential functions.

In this Investigation we look at exponential growth and decay models. This video is Segment 3 of a 4 segment series related to Exponents and Exponential Functions. Segments 3 and 4 are grouped together.

In this episode of Algebra Applications, students explore earthquakes using exponential models. In particular, students analyze the earthquake that struck the Sichuan Province in China in 2008, months before the Beijing Olympics. This dramatic, real-world example allows students to apply their understanding of exponential functions and their inverses, along with data analysis and periodic function analysis.
