Study Notes
Compound Interest Formulas
- Compound interest formula calculates the amount of interest on an investment or loan over time, typically compounded at specific intervals.
- Continuous compound interest formula represents the limit of compounded interest as the compounding frequency approaches infinity, calculated with the formula A = Pe^(rt), where A is the amount, P is the principal, r is the rate, and t is time.
Properties of Exponents
- Product property states that when multiplying two powers with the same base, you add the exponents: a^m * a^n = a^(m+n).
- Quotient property explains that when dividing two powers with the same base, you subtract the exponents: a^m / a^n = a^(m-n).
- Power property indicates that when raising a power to another power, you multiply the exponents: (a^m)^n = a^(mn).
Graph Transformations
- Horizontal translation occurs when the function is shifted left or right; exemplified by g(x) = 4^(x + 2), moving the graph 2 units to the left.
- Vertical translation shifts the function up or down; indicated by g(x) = 4^x + 5, moving the graph 5 units upwards.
- Reflection over the y-axis indicates a horizontal flip of the graph, demonstrated with g(x) = 4^(-x).
- Reflection over the x-axis shows a vertical flip of the graph, represented by g(x) = -4^x.
Stretches and Shrinks
- Horizontal stretch occurs when the x-values of the function are expanded, seen in g(x) = 4^(2x), which stretches the graph away from the y-axis.
- Horizontal shrink makes the graph more narrow, illustrated by g(x) = 4^(x/2).
- Vertical stretch amplifies y-values, exemplified by g(x) = 3(4^x), leading to a steeper graph.
- Vertical shrink reduces the height of the graph, shown by g(x) = (1/4)(4^x), resulting in a flatter appearance.
