How does this set format for exponential functions relate to viral transmission (what does 'a' mean for viral transmission? What does 'b' mean?)

Will your second math model (exponential model) be an increasing function or a decreasing function?

What do you think you will do if the exponential graph you find tomorrow for your second model doesn't have a 'nice' point at it's y-intercept?

Are you enjoying the video lesson?

• Yes

• No

What is the appropriate order of operations when solving exponential functions (he mentions this here)?

• multiply the 3 and the 2 first

• divide off the 3 first to isolate the exponent

• Solve 2 to the power of x first

• take the square root of the whole right side of the equation

What does this dude do first when writing an equation from a graph for exponential functions?

What is he solving for when he is identifying the pattern between his 'nice' points?

• Finding the y-intercept

• Finding the changing multiplier (R0)

• Solving for x

• Finding y
