Lesson 257 of 1524
5.3 Patterns of Growth
Begin making connections between linear and exponential growth and the real world (especially financially)
Practice this chapterBegin making connections between linear and exponential growth and the real world (especially financially) You did this by making sense of the provided graphs and used them to answer questions in the context of the scenario.
You recalled that a quantity that grows by adding the same amount at each step forms a line when plotted. Also, after viewing an example, you learned that a quantity that grows by the same ratio or factor at each step forms a curve when plotted
Be able to compare growth patterns using calculations and graphs; use words and expressions to describe patterns in tables of values; write expressions and create tables of values to represent them using descriptions of linear and exponential relationships.
