    Understanding The Spread of Hiv Hypothesis

    The document discusses an activity to demonstrate the exponential spread of HIV. Students were asked to form a hypothesis about how many people would be infected starting from two people with the virus. They then observed the spread through simulated fluid exchange between test tubes, noting how many ultimately had HIV. They were asked questions relating the activity results to exponential functions and growth, and asked to provide a real-world example of such a function.

    UNDERSTANDING THE SPREAD OF HIV


    Hypothesis

    Form a hypothesis about how many people in the room will be infected from 2 people starting
    the virus.

    Was your hypothesis correct?

    How many test tubes had HIV after the exchange of body fluids?

    How is the spread of HIV and exponential functions related?

    What kind of exponential function was demonstrated by the activity?


    Exponential growth or exponential decay?

    As a group, give a real life exponential growth or decay function


    example. You will share your examples before class ends.
