    Study Notes

    Exponential Equations

    • Exponential functions are defined as f(x) = b^x, where b > 0 and b ≠ 1.
    • For exponential growth (b > 1), the function increases, while for decay (0 < b < 1), the function decreases.
    • Example of growth: f(x) = 2^x with points like (0,1), (1,2), (2,4).
    • Example of decay: f(x) = (1/2)^x with points like (0,1), (1,0.5), (2,0.25).

    Simple Interest

    • Formula for simple interest: I = P * r * t.
      • P = principal amount
      • r = annual interest rate
      • t = time in years.
    • Example: Borrowing 4000at34000 at 3% for 9 months results in 4000at390 interest.
    • Time conversion:
      • 3 months = 0.25 years
      • 4 months = 0.333 years
      • 6 months = 0.5 years
      • 8 months = 0.667 years
      • 9 months = 0.75 years.

    Compound Interest

    • Formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where:
      • A = amount after time t
      • P = initial principal
      • r = annual interest rate
      • n = number of times interest applied per time period
      • t = time the money is invested or borrowed.
    • Interest can be compounded annually, semiannually, quarterly, monthly, or daily.
    • Continuous compounding formula: A = Pe^(rt).

    Doubling Time

    • To find the time for an investment to double, use the rule of 72: approximately 72 divided by the interest rate.
    • For tripling, apply similar strategies based on growth rates and formula adjustments.

    Matrices

    • A matrix is defined by its size (m × n) and can represent systems of equations.
    • Basic types include square, row, and column matrices.
    • Operations include addition, subtraction (A + B, A - B), scalar multiplication, and matrix multiplication (AB).
    • Matrix addition requires matrices of the same size, while multiplication is not commutative (AB ≠ BA).
    • Augmented matrices represent systems of linear equations, with rows indicating coefficients of variables and constants.

    Properties of Exponential Functions

    • The domain includes all real numbers, while the range consists of positive real numbers.
    • The graph is continuous with no x-intercepts and only one y-intercept at (0,1).
    • The increasing or decreasing behavior is determined by the base b.
