Appl transformations to eponential functions and graph eponential functions of an base. Appl eponential functions to real-life situations. Eponential 2 / 25 Eponential Functions A base-b eponential function has the form f ) = ab where a 0, b > 0 and b 1, and is an real number.

Also called the natural base. Irrational number e Graph 1 = ) and 2 = e on the same set of aes. What happens the graph of 1 as increases? Note that e can be found two places on the calculator keboard: 1) the second function of the division ke, and 2) the second function of the LN ke.

This means that at the end of the first ear the earned interest is added to the principal creating a new balance A1: A0 = P A1 = A0 + A0r A1 = A01 + r) A1 = P1 + r) Compound Interest Notice the pattern of multipling the principal b 1 + r each ear.

5 Compound Interest The pattern of annual compounding can be modified to accommodate compounding more often such as quarterl or monthl, for eample) to produce the following Formula for Compound Interest: At) = P 1 + r ) nt n where t is time in ears At) is the total amount after t ears P is the initial principal r is the interest rate n is the number of times per ear the interest is compounded Eponential 17 / 25 Compound Continuousl At) = P 1 + n) r nt Compound Interest) At) = P ) nt n r n n/r r At) = P ) r)t n = and n = r) r Eample 5 Suppose ou get a summer internship that allows ou to save $5000 to be invested in an interest-bearing account. Calculate how much mone ou will have if ou invest our mone for 10 ears at 7% and: 1. compound semiannuall 2. compound quarterl 3. compound monthl 4. compound dail Eponential 18 / 25 Compound Continuousl At) = P ) rt = n and n = r) r [ ) ] rt At) = P Power Prop Ep) [ ) ] rt At) = P lim 1 + 1/) = e) At) = Pe rt Substitution) Eponential 19 / 25 Eponential 20 / 25

6 Compound Continuousl If ou increase the number of times ou compound without bound this means to infinit... and beond!) the Formula for Compound Interest becomes At) = Pe rt Eample 6 Suppose ou get a summer internship that allows ou to save $5000 to be invested in an interest-bearing account. Calculate how much mone ou will have if ou invest our mone for 10 ears at 7% if the interest could be calculated continuousl. where t = time in ears At) is the total amount after t ears P is the initial principal r is the interest rate e is the natural base Eponential 21 / 25 Eponential 22 / 25 Eample 7 A population is declining at a rate of 2.5% annuall. The current population is approimatel 11 million people. Assuming the population decline continues at this rate, predict the population after: ears annual deca ears continuous deca. Eample 8 The table below shows the population growth of deer in a forest from 2000 to Deer Population Year Deer Assume an eponential rate of growth: 1. Identif the rate of increase. 2. Write an eponential equation to model this situation. 3. Predict the number of deer in Eponential 23 / 25 Eponential 24 / 25
