Lesson 285 of 1524

7.4 Comparing Quadratic and Exponential Functions

In each pattern, the number of small squares is a function of the step number, n

Practice this chapter

The correct order is 9 2 , 10 2 , 2 9 , 2 10 . In each pattern, the number of small squares is a function of the step number, n

You then determined if each expression was linear, exponential, or quadratic You then determined which function had a larger value as the x -values increased

number of small squares — a function of the step number, n.

Be able to explain using graphs, tables, or calculations that exponential functions eventually grow faster than quadratic functions; sketch a graph.
