This document provides examples of using exponential growth models to describe increasing population sizes over time. It gives four examples calculating population values at different time points using exponential growth equations. It also provides exercises to substitute values into exponential growth formulas to find missing quantities, including population size, growth rate, and time. The document concludes by assigning two word problems to solve using exponential growth models, showing the work and solutions.

describes the population of a city in the Philippines in thousands, t years after 1995.
▪ a) What was the population of the city in 1995?
▪ b) What will be the population in 2017? EXAMPLE 2:
▪ The exponential growth model A= 50 e0.07 t
describes the population of a city in the Philippines in thousands, t years after 1997. a-) What is the population after 20 years? ▪ b) What is the population in 2037? EXAMPLE 3:
To study a new strain of bacteria, a researcher puts
200 bacteria in a petri dish. Four hours later there are 664 bacteria in the petri dish. Write an equation to represent the continuous exponential growth of the bacteria and use that equation to predict the number of bacteria after 24 hours. Exercises: Substitute the given values in the formula to find the missing quantity.
▪ A) P= 680,000; r= 12% per year ; t= 8 years
▪ b-) A= 1,240,000 ; r= 8% per year ; t= 30 years ▪ C) A= 786,000 ; P= 247,000 ; t= 17 years ▪ D) A= 731,093 ; P= 525, 600 ; r= 3 % per year Assignment: Answer it on ½ sheet of paper crosswise and you must show the solution.
1) The number of cells in a culture increases
according to a continues exponential growth model. There were 1800 to begin with, and after 2.5 hours we notice there are now 1997. find the hourly growth parameter. ▪ 2) D) A= 731,093 ; P= 525, 600 ; r= 3 % per year ▪Thank you for listening!
