University of Guelph: Physics Tutorials: Graphing Exponential Functions

Explore the concept of graphing exponential functions. High school mathematicians are given exponential functions such as y=2*3^x, and they graph them on a coordinate plane.  They are given two exponential graphs and must write an...

Once you know how to graph y = b^x, the sky's the limit. Young mathematicians learn to graph basic exponential functions and identify key features, and then graph functions of the form f(x) = ab^(x – h) + k from the function f(x) = b^x.

High schoolers graph exponential equations and solve application problems using exponential functions. They re-enact a story about a peasant worker whose payment for services is rice grains doubled on a checker board. They place M &...

Students graph exponential equations of the form y=Ma. They understand the effects of M, a, and k on the graph. They solve application problems using exponential functions.

Playing with matches (unlit, of course) becomes an engaging learning experience in this fun instructional unit. Teach pupils how to apply properties of exponential functions to solve problems. They differentiate between quadratic and...

Good site explaining exponential growth and decay, with questions for students to test themselves.

Expand your knowledge on exponential growth! A concept video features the definition of an exponential function. Eight problem videos cover graphing exponential functions, identifying exponential growth and decay, and applying...

Set up a table to keep track of your values as you evaluate an exponential function. Select some values for the table to plug in to the given exponential expression. Then evaluate the expression. Do you see a pattern?

One way to get values to be able to graph an exponential function is to make a table. This seems pretty straightforward. Set up a table to plug in random values for x. Then put those values into the equation to get the y-values. These...

Students learn how to graph exponential functions. The lesson compares exponential functions graphs to linear function graphs and includes a practice problem. [10:27]
