1 1 Section 10 Exponential Functions We now turn our attention back to exponential functions In order to work with these functions effectively, it is important that we know how exponents can be manipulated This, in turn, requires an understanding of roots So, this is where we begin Part 1 Roots Example 1: Complete the following table without using a calculator (You don t need to complete the gray cells) Example 2: Determine the missing numbers in each of the following equations The missing number is 3 There are two possible missing numbers, 3 and -3 There are two possible missing numbers, 8 and -8 The missing number is 2 (e) There is no real number which, when squared, equals -16 (A real number is a number that you would find on a number line When you square a real number, the result is either positive or zero) The missing numbers you were looking for in the last example are called roots For example, 3 is a cube root of 27, 8 and -8 are square roots of 64, and -2 is a fifth root of -32 In general, an nth root of a number a is the number which, when raised to the nth power, equals a In other words,
2 2 Example 3: Find indicated roots of the following numbers square roots of 36 Since, 6 and -6 are both square roots of 36 cube roots of 8 Since, 2 is a cube root of 8 4th roots of 81 Since, 3 and -3 are both 4th roots of 81 cube roots of -64 Since, -4 is a cube root of -64 Notation for Roots: We denote the nth root of a number a by The symbol is called a radical symbol For even-numbered roots (ie square roots, fourth roots, etc), refers only to the positive root For square roots, we write rather than Example 4: Find the indicated roots: since Both 5 and -5 are square roots of 25 However, refers to the positive square root So, Both 2 and -2 are fourth roots of 16 However, refers to the positive fourth root So, does not exist (as a real number) since it is not possible to square a real number and get -81 (e) since
3 3 Part 2 Properties of Exponents We begin with the five most basic properties of exponents: Motivating Example Property Example 5: Simplify the following expressions using the properties above (e)
4 4 The next three properties might appear less intuitive than the properties on the previous page, but they are the logical consequences of these properties Motivating Example Property On the one hand, On the other hand, So, On the one hand, On the other hand, So, So, Example 6: Simplify each of the following expressions using the above properties (e) Example 7: Use the exponent properties that you ve learned today to simply the following expressions
5 5 (e) (f) Example 8: Write using exponents is not equal to an integer (ie like -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ) Determine a decimal value (approximation) using your graphing calculator Type 9^(1/4) into your calculator (The parentheses are necessary! Why do you think this is?) The numerical value returned is Part 3 Return to Exponential Growth and Decay Example 9: Suppose a population grows 6% every 3 years Determine the annual percentage growth The most obvious thing to try is to take Let s check to see if this is correct If the population is actually growing by 2% annually, then it must be growing by a factor of 102 each year Use this factor to complete the table Don t round your values! Year Population Now, did the population increase by 6% over these 3 years? (ie Did it grow by a factor of 106?) /500 = So, the population actually increased by 61208%!! Clearly, dividing 6% by 3 years was not the correct way to determine the annual percentage growth So, what is the correct way? Let R represent the annual growth factor It follows that Why is this? Well, to obtain a 3-year factor, you would need to multiply by the 1-year factor three times So, then, what must
6 6 R equal? From our earlier work, If we evaluate this using a calculator, we find that R = So, according to this calculation, the population would be growing by approximately 196% each year, which is a little less than 2% Let s recalculate the table on the previous page to make sure that this factor is correct Year Population Now, if we divide 530 by 500, we see that the population grew by a factor of 106 (6%) over the three years The results from this example are summarized below If a quantity is growing or decaying exponentially by a factor of c over n-unit time periods, then the quantity is growing by a factor of over 1-unit time periods Example 10: Assume the quantities below grow or decay exponentially Determine the growth/decay factors and the corresponding percentage growth/decay over 1-unit time periods Quantity grows by 45% every 10 years The 10-year growth factor is 145 So, the annual growth factor = In other words, the quantity grows 38% annually Quantity decays by 21% every 3 weeks The 3-week decay factor is 079 So, the weekly decay factor = corresponds to a decay of 8% each week Quantity grows by 26% every 10 days The 10-day growth factor is 126 So, the daily growth factor = corresponds to a growth of 23% each day which which Example 11: Shown below are some exponential functions Use exponent properties to write the functions in the form Note: This shows that growing by a factor of 8 during 3-unit periods of time is equivalent to growing by a factor of 2 over 1-unit periods of time
7 7 This shows that growing by a factor of 81 during 4-unit periods of time is equivalent to growing by a factor of 3 over 1-unit periods of time This shows that growing by a factor of 157 during 7-unit periods of time is equivalent to growing by a factor of over 1-unit periods of time Example 12: In 1999, global consumption of bottled water was approximately 26 billion gallons By 2004, consumption reached 41 billion gallons (Bottled Water: Pouring Resources Down the Drain Earth Policy Institute (2006), By what percentage did consumption of bottled water increase during this period? The 5-year growth factor is 41/26 = 1577 Thus, consumption grew 577% during this period What was the average annual percentage growth during this period? Since the 5-year growth factor is 1577, the average annual growth factor is, which corresponds to 954% average annual growth during this period (Note: We never assumed that consumption of bottled water was growing exponentially The real annual percentage growth probably varies from year to year The 954% is therefore only an average measure of growth during this period) If we assume that bottled water consumption is growing exponentially, determine two different function equations describing this growth Let t represent time in years since 1999 and let y represent consumption (in billions of gallons) We begin with the basic equation for an exponential function Recall that b represents the initial amount Since t = 0 in the year 1999, b = 26 billion gallons In determining values for c and m, we now have a choice: Either choose c = 1577 and m = 5, or choose c = and n = 1 So, the two equivalent equations that describe the growth are or Complete the following input/output table for the two functions above t Notice that the outputs of the two functions are effectively the same
8 8 (e) If bottled water consumption continues to grow exponentially in the future, what is the projected global consumption in the year 2010? In the year 2010, t = 11 years When t = 11, So, if bottled water consumption is growing exponentially, then the projected global bottled water consumption is approximately71 billion gallons in the year 2010 Example 13: Determine the equations of each of the following exponential functions described below Outputs decay 10% over 4-unit periods and graph has a vertical intercept equal to 7 We begin with the algebraic form The 10% decay over 4-unit periods tells us that c = 090 and n = 4 Since b represents the vertical intercept, b = 7 Thus, the equation is Graph passes through the points (0,1) and (3,4) The two points listed represent input/output pairs for this function: x 0 3 y 1 4 From the table, we determine that the growth factor c equals 4/1 = 4 over 3-unit periods, ie n = 3 Since b represents the value of the output variable corresponding to an input value of 0, b = 1 Thus, the equation is Graph passes through the points (1,10) and (3,4) The two points listed represent input/output pairs for this function: x 1 3 y 10 4 From the table, we determine that the growth factor c equals 4/10 = 04 and n = 2 Thus, the equation is To find b, we will use one of the input/output pairs Since y = 10 when x = 1, it follows that We solve this equation for b Dividing both sides of this equation by which is approximately 1581 Thus, the resulting equation is gives
9 9 Graph passes through the points (5, 2) and (2, 1) The two points listed represent input/output pairs for this function: x 5 2 y 2 1 From the table, we determine the factor for this function If you think of the values of x as times, then x = 2 is earlier than x = 5 So, the factor c will equal 2/1 = 2 for n = 3 Consequently, the equation is To find b, we again use one of the input/output pairs Let s choose (5, 2) Substituting this pair into our equation yields gives Dividing both sides of this equation by Consequently, the equation is
