Evaluating Exponential Functions and Tables

Mrs. Mohalczyk explains how to fill in tables and write exponential equations. The video covers the characteristics of exponential functions, the process of filling an XY table, and the use of radicals in exponents. The tutorial guides students through calculating small jumps between whole numbers and finalizing the table using these calculations.

What is the main focus of the problem discussed in the video?

• Solving linear equations

• Filling tables and writing exponential equations

• Graphing quadratic functions

• Solving inequalities

How do exponential functions differ from linear functions?

• Exponential functions add the same number each time

• Exponential functions multiply or divide by the same number each time

• Exponential functions subtract the same number each time

• Exponential functions have no pattern
