Planning notes for this lesson
Prerequisite skills to check: linear functions and slope (8.F.B.4); properties of integer exponents (8.EE.A.1); percent increase and decrease (7.RP.A.3); evaluating a function from a table or graph.
Warm-up idea: Ask: would you rather get $1,000 a day for 30 days, or 1 cent on day 1 that doubles every day for 30 days? Have students guess before calculating.
Exit ticket idea: Students write y = a(b)^x for a situation, say whether it shows growth or decay, and state the percent rate of change.
Always check the AI's plan and answers before you teach.
