Exponential Functions Problem Solving Tutorial

475 views on YouTube

In this math tutorial, learn about problem solving with exponential growth and exponential decay functions. Each one has a constant relative rate of change (percent rate of change). An exponential growth function has a doubling-time and an exponential decay function has a half-life. Both kinds of functions have graphs which are concave up.
