Curated OER
US Population 1790-1860
Your young population scientists analyze a table of values, write a model to represent the real life data, finish the table of data and predict future populations in a collaborative, real-life activity.

Snail Invasion
Exponential growth is modeled by learners as they analyze and interpret the data presented in this real-life scenario centered on the destructive invasion of the Giant African Land Snail. Learners get a touch of history and practice...
Curated OER
In the Billions and Exponential Modeling
Modeling population growth gives learners an opportunity to experiment with real data. Comparing the growth rates in this real-life task strengthens learners' understanding that exponential functions change by equal factors over equal...

Math Planet: Algebra 1: Exponential Growth Functions
An exponential function is a nonlinear function that has the form of y=a*b^x, where a != 0, b > 0. An exponential function with a > 0 and b > 1, like the one above, represents an exponential growth and the graph of an...
