Creating Equations for Exponential Growth: Geometric Sequences

This lesson teaches how to create an equation for a geometric sequence using tables and graphs. It reviews exponential functions, explains the initial value and common ratio in geometric sequences, and highlights common student mistakes. A practical example with paper tearing demonstrates the concept, and the lesson concludes with graphing the sequence to visualize the pattern.

What happens to the number of pieces of paper after the 10th tear according to the exponential expression derived?
