Estimation of Population Growth by Counting Offspring: Seed Multiplication
Students analyze a multi-seeded fruit, such as tomato, pepper, squash, watermelon, etc. They remove and count the seeds from the fruit and hypothesize/calculate the reproductive rate of that organism.
Curated OER
Twenty-Nine Various Exponential Function Problems
In this exponential growth and decay worksheet, students identify equations as growth or decay, find balance in an account, find half-life, identify interest rate, identify the initial amount, and identify the growth factor.
