Asymptotes and exponential functions
Not what you're looking for?
Need help explaining and contrasting asymptotes considered for rational functions (see attachment). Exponential functions for real life situations.
Help would be appreciated.
Scenario: One of the archeologists you interviewed for your article is graphing asymptotes to illustrate the data generated through carbon dating the half-life of fossil specimens. Help him with his work by solving these problems:
1. Explain and contrast the types of asymptotes considered for rational functions.
2. Browse through some newspapers or magazines and find a situation that fits an exponential function. Explain why that data or situation fits an exponential function.
? Solve linear equations.
? Create graphs of functions.
? Use polynomial, rational, exponential and logarithmic functions.
Thank you very much.
