- Table and Graph for students to explore linear vs. exponential results of the given choices (printable PDF, Google Sheets, and Microsoft Excel versions included)
- Answer Key
Exponential functions are a difficult concept for students because they are used to thinking about linear relations. Before telling students how exponential functions work (or even the terminology), I like to get students thinking exponentially.
Students are given three choices in a "Would you rather?" scenario and will be eager to figure out the math to solve this problem! Students then create a table and graph for each option and determine the best option. The table and graph are provided as a printable PDF, as well as digital versions in Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel. The digital versions automatically create the graph when students type numbers in the table.
