C FUNCTIONS
Exponential functions are often used to represent real-
world applications, such as bacterial growth/decay,
population growth/decline, and compound interest.
Through the study of exponential and logarithmic
functions, important decisions can be made. Future
WHY ARE EXPONENTIAL phenomena are predicted using models, thus, giving us
AND LOGARITHMIC the opportunity to make advance judgment or
decisions that would help us adapt to the changes.

A GLIMPSE
Problem:
Mr. Cruz deposited money in the bank which earns 5% annual interest compounded
annually. Computation is done every year to know the interest earned. The first interest
is added to the deposit. This sum also earns interest for the next period.
Supposed Mr. Cruz’ initial deposit is Php 500. After the first year, the money would
earn Php 25.00 since Php 500(0.05) = Php 25. At the beginning of the second year, the
amount is already Php 525.00.
A GLIMPSE
The table below illustrates how the money grows year after
year.
Time Involved Amount of Money in the Bank
At the beginning Php 500
After one year Php 500 + Php 500(0.05) = Php 525.00
After two years Php 525.00 + Php 525.00(0.05) = Php 551.25
After three years Php 551.25 + php 551.25(0.05) = Php 578.81
And so on…
A GLIMPSE
The table below illustrates how the money grows year after
year.
Computation:
Time Amount of Money in the Bank After 1 year: 500 + 500(0.05) = 500(1 + 0.05)
Involved = 500(1.05)
At the beginning Php 500 = Php 525.00
After 2 years: 500(1.05) + 500(1.05)(0.05) = 500
After 1 year Php 500 + Php 500(0.05) = Php 525.00 After 3 years: 500(1.05)3
After 4 years: 500(1.05)4
After 2 years Php 525.00 + Php 525.00(0.05) = Php 551.25 And so on…
After n years, the total amount of money A deposited is
