During class on March 10th, we spent the entire day working on our exponential regression homework.
An example of how to do this would be to put the information into the lists and run an exponential regression. This will bring up a bunch of numbers.
A= starting value
B= rate of change
X= time
This means that if there was 1000 bugs and half of them die a day, the equation would be: 1000(.5)^x
If you were trying to find out how many bugs there would be in 3 days you would do: 1000(.5)^3 which is 125.
Here is a picture of what your calculator should look like when you run an exponential regression.
