Lesson Plan

Distinguishing linear, quadratic, and exponential models

Goals / Objectives

Classify a relationship given as a table, a graph, or a verbal description as linear, quadratic, or exponential, and write the model of that family from the given values

Classify a table by which of its first differences, ratios, or second differences is constant, and explain why a constant second difference indicates a quadratic

Classify a graph by its distinguishing feature: curvature, a turning point, or a horizontal asymptote

Classify a verbal description by whether the change per period is a fixed amount or a fixed percent or multiple

Explain why exponential growth eventually exceeds any linear growth

Standards
