Lesson Plan

Illustrative Mathematics: F Le Basketball Rebounds

Curated by ACT

The purpose of this task is to introduce students to an exponential decay function in the form f(x) = abx, with a concrete interpretation of the decay factor b. A table shows the rebound height of a basketball for each successive bounce. Students are asked to calculate how many bounces it will take before the rebound is less than 100 mm. Aligns with F-LE.A.2 and F-LE.A.1.c.
