Frequently found in biology and economic application problems, exponential equations show up as stars in this introductory presentation. Taking no background or knowledge of exponentials for granted, the slides walk learners through the vocabulary, basic features, and numerical manipulation of exponential equations. Examples are taken from other fields and worked, step by step, with emphasis on interpreting features and answers in context. This customizable PowerPoint would make a great remediation or topic introduction tool in both the small group and larger class setting.
