Exponentials

Exponentials

1. Equations

   • Type 1 Exponential Equations
     • Change both sides to common base and set the exponents equal.
   • Type 2 exponential equations
     • -isolate the exponential expression -take log of both sides -use the power property to bring down the exponent

2. Formulas

   • Exponential growth-a(1+R)^t
   • Exponential decay-a(1-R)^t
   • Compound interest-A=P(1+r/n)^nt
   • Continuous compounding growth-A=Pe^rt
   • Continuous compounding decay-A=Pe^-rt
