Unit 3 - Exponential Functions -----
Lesson 3.1
In this lesson we review and explore the exponent laws from grade 9 and apply them to tougher simplifications.

Lesson 3.2
In this lesson we explore what it means to have a rational (fractional) exponent and how that is related to something you have seen since at least grade 9. We look at applying the exponent laws reviewed yesterday to rational exponents as a new concept.

Lesson 3.3
In this lesson we look at how to solve and exponential equation. We revisit some power laws to get started, and some linear and quadratic solving skills.

Formative 7
In this investigation, we look at the control factors, specifically the base, that affect the shape of an exponential graph. As an extension we begin looking at how these graphs could be transformed using the skills developed in unit 1 around transformations.
Blank Investigation
Work through 4.6 investigation (pg. 244-246)
Lesson 3.4
In this lesson we take a deeper look at applying our transformations skills to exponential graphs. We also apply our mapping statement skills to creating a transformed graph.

Lesson 3.5
In this lesson we look at exponential word problems and how they can be used to model real world situations. We look at exponential growth and decay, doubling, and half-life problems.
