- 2.2: Modeling with Linear Functions
- When modeling scenarios with a linear function and solving problems involving quantities changing linearly, we typically follow the same problem solving strategies that we would use for any type of function:
- 2.4: Modeling with Exponential Functions
- India is the second most populous country in the world with a population that is growing by about 1.34% each year. We might ask if we can find a formula to model the population as a function of time if the population continues to grow at this rate. In linear growth, we had a constant rate of change – a constant number that the output increased for each increase in input. This scenario is different – we have a percent rate of change rather than a constant number of people as our rate of change.
