Has individual practice problems as well to go over. Topics include: -Transformations of the Absolute Value Function -Horizontal and Vertical Translations -Reflections in the x- and y- axis -Stretches and Shrinks -Combining Transformations

A really fun and interesting task that you can use to supplement an exponential functions unit for a summative assessment opportunity. It includes a real-life problem where they will have to use their knowledge of exponential functions to solve. They will need to know how to: -Model a situation with an exponential model -Graph the model on a coordinate plane by choosing the right scale and headers -Plot points from a table -Use interpolation and extrapolation to fill in missing values to a tab
