Ok, guys--here's the plan. For the last three weeks we are going to do one or two challenge problems each week. Each problem will be an example of how what we've learned this year can be used in the "real world". Mostly, we'll be using exponential functions--think back to last semester when we did appendix A & B: bunnies, the penny lab, the bouncing ball labs, etc. I can help if you need me! I'm pulling most the problems out of a chapter we haven't gotten to yet, so we'll have to use what you've learned already and your answers will be more estimations than exact, but that's ok--the point is to persevere in solving the problem, because sometimes in life that's what we have to do. Am I making sense? I feel like I'm rambling, haha.
For this week, you need to do #126 in lesson 6.2.3. You can use a graphing calculator to help you solve--www.desmos.com is an awesome free online graphing calculator. Make sure you show all of your work and/or explain your reasoning.
