Worksheet #6, Exponents, Interest, and Radioactive Decay of Isotopes
For this calculus worksheet, students sketch graphs of given exponential functions. They compute the principal needed to have a given ending balance when the interest is compounded at varying times. Kids use a simple exponential model to...
