Activity Overview
In this activity, students will explore additional transformations. This is Part 2 of Transformations of Exponential Functions.
About the Lesson
This lesson involves the family of exponential functions of the form f(x)=ba*x + C
As a result, students will:
- Manipulate sliders, and observe the effect on the graph of the corresponding exponential function.
- Conjecture and draw conclusions about the effect of each parameter on the graph of the exponential function.
- Compare horizontal dilations and change of base and manipulate equations to demonstrate they are the same.
- Match specific exponential functions with their corresponding graphs.
*Note: This activity contains an optional AP Practice Questions document for those students preparing for the AP Precalculus Exam.
