2 Algebra Unit 8 Worksheet CALCULATORS ARE NOT ALLOWED Simplify: Definition: The function defined by y = b is called an eponential function with base b Requirements: b > 0, b Characteristics of eponential functions: The basic graph of an eponential function looks like the following: Increasing An increasing eponential if they rise as they go from left to right. Decreasing A decreasing eponential if they drop as they go from left to right. Other characteristics: The -ais is a horizontal asymptote of the graph and the graphs contain the point (0,). In problems 6, complete the table of values and then graph on graph paper.. y =. y = 5. y y y = 6. y y = 5 y

3 Sketch the following graphs of the eponential functions and state if they are increasing or decreasing graphs. Be sure to label the intercepts. 7. y = 8. y = 9. y = 5 0. y Create a table of values in problems - and then graph on graph paper.. y =. y = 0. y = ( ) =. Eplain why the graphs of #- are not eponential functions. What in the equations is wrong?

5 Algebra Unit 8 Worksheet CALCULATORS ARE NOT ALLOWED Many real world phenomena can be modeled by functions that describe how things grow or decay as time passes. Eamples of such phenomena include the studies of populations, bacteria, the AIDS virus, radioactive substances, electricity, temperatures and credit payments, to mention a few. Any quantity that grows or decays by a fied percent at regular intervals is said to possess eponential growth or eponential decay. Such a situation is called Eponential Decay. Such a situation is called Eponential Growth. The time required for a substance to decay and fall to one half of its initial value is called the half-life. Radio-isotopes of different elements have different half-lives. Some people are frightened of certain medical tests because the tests involve the injection of radioactive materials. Doctors use isotopes whose radiation is etremely low-energy, so the danger of mutation is very low. The half-life is long enough that the doctors have time to take pictures, but not so long as to pose health problems. They use elements that are not readily absorbed by the body but are voided or flushed long before they get a change to decay within your body

6 For the following word problems we will be using the eponential equation y = A ( b ) t h. Where A is the initial amount b is the amount of growth (or decay) that occurs in h time t is time. Technetium-99m is one of the most commonly used radioisotopes for medical purposes. It has a half life of 6 hours. If 0.5 cc s (which is less than a teaspoon) of Technetium-99m is injected for a scan of a gallbladder, how much radioactive material will remain after hours? Use the formula y = A t 6 where A = the number of cc s present initially t = time in hours. When a plant or animal dies, it stops acquiring Carbon- from the atmosphere. Carbon- decays over time with a half-life of 570 years. How much of a 0mg sample will remain after,60 years? Use the formula N = N 0 t h where N 0 is the initial amount N = the amount remaining t = time in years h = half life. One certain element has a half-life of 600 years. If 00 grams were present originally, how many grams will remain after 00 years?. The radioactive gas radon has a half-life of days. How much of an 80 gram sample will remain after 9 days? 5. The radioactive gas radon has a half-life of approimately days. About how much of a 00 gram sample will remain after week? 6. The population of a certain country doubles in size every 60 years. The population is now million people. Find its size in 80 years. y = A () 60 t A = initial population t = time elapsed in years - 6 -

7 7. Bacteria populations tend to have eponential growth rather than decay. Suppose a certain bacteria population doubles in size every hours. If you start with 00 bacteria how many will there be in 8 hours? 8. A certain population of bacteria doubles every weeks. The number of bacteria now is only 0. How many will there be in 5 weeks? 9. A culture of yeast doubles in size every 0 minutes. The size of the culture is now 70. Find its size in hour (remember to convert hour to minutes.) 0. The growth of a town doubles every year. If there are 6,000 people after years, find the initial population.. The number of people with a flu virus is growing eponentially with time as shown in the table below. Flu Virus Growth Day Number of People Which multiple choice equation epresses the number of bacteria, N, present at any time,? a. N = 00 b. N = 00 + c. N = 800 d. N = 00. In the early years of the century the national debt was growing eponentially with time as shown in the table below. National Debt Year Debt 0 0,000 60,000 0,000 Which multiple choice formula epresses the debt, y, at any time t? a. y = 0,000 t b. y = 0000 t c. y = 0 t d. y = 0,000 + t. An epidemic of bubonic plague grew eponentially by the formula A = A 0 t where A 0 = original amount infected t = time passed in weeks If 5,000 people were infected after 8 weeks, find the original amount that were infected

How much of a gram sample will remain after 6 hours. Choose the best multiple choice response. a. 0. b.. c. 8.5 d Geekonium-5 decays using the formula: A = I t h The half life of Geekonium-5 is years. Find how much of a 60 gram sample remains after 8 years. t 00 Unit 8 Worksheet Determine the eponent needed to change the left number into the right number. You may use positive, negative, zero, and fractional eponents. Guess and Check: ½. / /

9 Logarithms (or s) are used to find the eponents to help us solve eponential equations. Structure of a arithm: y = b Eample: Simplify 8=? b is the base y is the value is the eponent on b to yield y = (because = 8) Simplify # Logarithms with a base 0 are called common arithms. The base of 0 is implied and not shown. For eample, 000 is equivalent to Simplify: (Remember, when no base is given it is assumed to be base 0)

10 Unit 8 Worksheet Log Rules : (b and y must be positive numbers, b ) b y = b = y b b = y b b = y b = 0 π. e.78 Remember, if no base is shown assume it is base 0, the common. y = 0 y = 0 = y If base e is used it is called a natural. Instead of writing we use ln ln y e = y = e y = (Remember, e is just an irrational number. It is approimately.78; see Page 9 in your tetbook) Restrictions: You can t take 0 or (of a negative number) With bases, you can t do 0 base or base or negative base Verify the by rewriting the equation into eponential form.. = 5. 9 =. 7 7 =. 8 = Rewrite the equation in arithmic form. 5. = = = = 8 Simplify:
