Determine the domain, range and horizontal asymptotes for: y = 4x domain: range: HA: y = (1/2)x domain: range: HA: Compare the transformations between the two functions, f and g: f(x) = 4x and g(x) = 4x + 3 f(x) = 4x and g(x) = 4x + 2 Determine the growth rate and the growth factor for y = 0.3(1.27)x Determine the decay rate and the decay factor for y = 6(0.87)x All real 0 y = 0 All real 0 y = 0 shifts function up by 3 shifts function left by 2 growth factor = 1.27 growth rate = 0.27 or 27% decay factor = 0.87 decay rate = -0.13 or -13% Activity 5 - 5 Cellular Phones Objectives Determine the growth and decay factor for an exponential function represented by a table of values or an equation Graph exponential functions defined by y = abx, where a ≠ 0, b 0 and b ≠ 1 Identify the meaning of a in y = abx as it relates to a practical situation Determine the doubling and halving time Vocabulary Doubling time – the time required for the amount to double Halving time – also known as half-life, the time required for the amount to decrease by one-half Activity During a meeting, you hear the familiar ring of a cell phone. Without hesitation, several of your friends reach into their jacket pockets, brief cases and purses to receive the anticipated call. Although sometimes annoying, cell phones have become part of our way of life. The following table shows the rapid increase in the number of cell phone users in the late 1990s. Year Cell Phones ( in millions) 1996 44.248 1997 55.312 1998 69.14 1999 86.425 2000 108.031 Is this a linear function? Why or why not? No rate of change is not constant Activity cont Calculate the missing pieces in the table below: Year Cell Phones (in millions) Rate of Change Ratio between Years 1996 44.248 1997 55.312 1998 69.14 1999 86.4
