1 Name Class Date 15.4 Comparing Linear and Exponential Models Essential Question: How can you recognize when to use a linear model or an exponential model? Resource Locker Explore 1 Comparing Constant Change and Constant Percent Change Suppose that you are offered a job that pays you $1000 the first month with a raise every month after that. You can choose a $100 raise or a 10% raise. Which option would you choose? What if the raise were 8%, 6%, or 4%? A Find the monthly salaries for the first three months. Record the results in the table, rounded to the nearest dollar. For the $100 raise, enter 1000 into your graphing calculator, press ENTER, enter +100, press ENTER, and then press ENTER repeatedly. For the 10% raise, enter 1000, press ENTER, enter 1.10, press ENTER, and then press ENTER repeatedly. For the other raises, multiply by 1.08, 1.06, or Monthly Salary after Indicated Monthly Raise Month $100 10% 8% 6% 4% 0 $1000 $1000 $1000 $1000 $ $1100 $1100 $1080 $1060 $ B For each option, find how much the salary changes each month, both in dollars and as a percent of the previous month s salary. Round the each percent to the nearest whole number. Record the values in the table. Change in Salary per Month for Indicated Monthly Raise Interval $100 10% 8% 6% 4% $ % $ % $ % $ % $ % Module Lesson 4
2 C Continue the calculations you did in Part A until you find the number of months it takes for each salary with a percent raise to exceed the salary with the $100 raise. Record the number of months in the table below. Number of Months until Salary with Percent Raise Exceeds Salary with $100 Raise 10% 8% 6% 4% 2 Reflect 1. Discussion Compare and contrast the salary changes per month for the raise options. Explain the source of any differences. 2. Discussion Would you choose a constant change per month or a percent increase per month? What would you consider when deciding? Explain your reasoning. Explore 2 Exploring How Linear and Exponential Functions Grow Linear functions change by equal differences, while exponential functions change by equal factors. Now you will explore the proofs of these statements. x 2 - x 1 and x 4 - x 3 represent two intervals in the x-values of a function. A Complete the proof that linear functions grow by equal differences over equal intervals. Given: x 2 - x 1 = x 4 - x 3 ƒ is linear function of the form ƒ (x) = mx + b. Prove: ƒ ( x 2 ) - ƒ ( x 1 ) = ƒ ( x 4 ) - ƒ ( x 3 ) Proof: 1. x 2 - x 1 = x 4 - x 3 Given 2. m ( x 2 - x 1 ) = ( x 4 - x 3 ) Multiplication Property of Equality 3. mx 2 - = mx 4 - Distributive Property 4. mx 2 + b - mx 1 - b = Addition & Subtraction Properties of Equality mx mx 3-5. mx 2 + b - ( mx 1 + b) = Distributive property mx 4 + b - ( ) 6. f ( x 2 ) - f ( x 1 ) = ( ) Definition of ƒ (x) Module Lesson 4
3 B Complete the proof that exponential functions grow by equal factors over equal intervals. Given: x 2 - x 1 = x 4 - x 3 Prove: g is an exponential function of the form g (x) = ab x. g ( x _ 2 ) g ( x 1 ) = g (x 4 _) g (x 3 ) Proof: 1. x 2 - x 1 = x 4 - x 3 Given 2. b ( x 2 - x 1 ) = b ( x 4 - x 3 ) If x = y, then b x = b y. 3. _ b x 2 = _ b x 4 x 1 b Quotient of Powers Property _ ab x 2 ab = ab x 4 _ x 1 g ( x _ 2 ) g ( x 1 ) = g (x 4 _) Multiplication Property of Equality Definition of g (x) 3. In the previous proofs, what do x 2 - x 1 and x 4 - x 3 represent? Explain 1 Comparing Linear and Exponential Functions When comparing raises, a fixed dollar increase can be modeled by a linear function and a fixed percent increase can be modeled by an exponential function. Example 1 Compare the two salary plans listed by using a graphing calculator. Will Job B ever have a higher monthly salary than Job A? If so, after how many months will this occur? A Job A: $1000 for the first month with a $100 raise every month thereafter Job B: $1000 for the first month with a 1% raise every month thereafter Write the functions that represent the monthly salaries. Let t represent the number of elapsed months. Job A: S A (t) = t Job B: S B (t) = 1000 (1.01) t Graph the functions on a calculator using Y 1 for Job A and Y 2 for Job B. Estimate the number of months it takes for the salaries to become equal using the intersect feature of the calculator. At x 364 months, the salaries are equal. Module Lesson 4
4 Go to the estimated intersection point in the table feature. Find the first x-value at which Y 2 exceeds Y 1. Job B will have a higher monthly salary than Job A after 364 months. B Job A: $1000 for the first month with a $200 raise every month thereafter Job B: $1000 for the first month with a 4% raise every month thereafter Write the functions that represent the monthly salaries. Let t represent the number of elapsed months. t Job A: S A (t) = + t Job B: S B (t) = ( ) Graph the functions on a calculator and use this graph to estimate the number of months it takes for the salaries to become equal. At x months, the salaries are equal. Job B will have a higher salary than Job A after months. Reflect 4. In Example 1A, which job offers a monthly salary that reflects a constant change, and which offers a monthly salary that reflects a constant percent change? 5. Describe an exponential increase in terms of multiplication. Your Turn 6. Job A: $2000 for the first month with a $300 raise every month thereafter Job B: $1500 for the first month with a 5% raise every month thereafter Module Lesson 4
5 Explain 2 Choosing between Linear and Exponential Models Both linear equations and exponential equations and their graphs can model real-world situations. Determine whether the dependent variable appears to change by a common difference or a common ratio to select the correct model. A model may not fit real-world data exactly, so differences or factors between successive intervals may not be constant, but may be nearly so. Example 2 Determine whether each situation is better described by an increasing or decreasing function, and whether a linear or exponential regression should be used. Then find a regression equation for each situation by using a graphing calculator. Evaluate the fit. A The size of an elk population is studied each year during a period in which there is an increase in its predator population. Population over Time Year Population, P Change per Interval Difference P (t n ) - P (t n - 1 ) Factor P (t n ) _ P (t n - 1 ) The dependent variable is population, and it is decreasing while the number of years is increasing. This means that the function is decreasing. Note that because the factor changes are relatively close to equal while the difference changes are not, an exponential regression model should be used. Perform the exponential regression analysis and evaluate the fit. The r-value suggests a good fit. To draw a residual plot, you can calculate the residuals, enter them in column L3, and make a scatter plot using L1 as the XList and L3 as the YList. The analysis of residuals suggests a good fit. Module Lesson 4
6 B The size of a raccoon population is studied each year during a period in which there is an increase in its predator population. Population over Time Year Population, P Change per Interval Difference P (t n ) - P (t n - 1 ) Factor P (t n ) _ P (t n - 1 ) Is the function increasing or decreasing? Explain. Which changes are closer to being equal, the differences or the factors? Which type of regressions should be used? Perform the regression analysis and evaluate the fit. Reflect Note that the r-value suggests a fit. The analysis of residuals suggests a fit. 7. What would the residual plot look like if an exponential regression was not a good fit for a function? Module Lesson 4
7 Your Turn Determine whether this situation is better described by an increasing or decreasing function, and whether a linear or exponential regression should be used. Then find a regression equation. Evaluate the fit. 8. The price of a barrel of oil is recorded each month. Price over Time Year Price, P (dollars) Change per Interval Difference P ( t n ) - P ( t n - 1 ) Factor _ P ( t n ) P ( t n - 1 ) = Elaborate 9. In the long term, which type of raise will guarantee a larger paycheck: a fixed raise or a percentage raise? Image Credits: Greg Lawler/Alamy 10. What type of function is typically represented by a linear function? 11.
