U6D3 Transformations of Exponential functions Date ______________________________________________


I can graph exponential functions.

Warm-up: The data graphed represents the population of tadpoles in a pond.


a) What is the y-intercept and what does it represent?

Population
b) Write an equation (y = abx) to represent the population growth.

c) Use your equation to determine the number of tadpoles that would be in the
pond on day 7 if the growth continues at the same rate.

d) What was the average rate of change between x = 0 and x = 2? Number of days

Now that you know some of the characteristics of exponentials,


let’s try graphing a few with basic transformations!
General form of an exponential function is: 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑎(𝐵)(𝑥−ℎ) ± 𝑘
Just like with our previous functions:
➢ the “h” value still shifts the graph of the function _________________________________________________
➢ the “k” value still shifts the graph of the function _________________________________________________
➢ The h and k provide a starting place for the graph we will refer to as the anchor point.
➢ the “a” value still results in a _______________________________________________________________________________
We will graph these using a pattern. -1 Flip the base
