Gua 5: HOW MUCH DO I KNOW ABOUT THE APPLICATIONS OF

EXPONENTIAL FUNCTIONS?

Solve the following problems using a separated paper. Show complete process and be
sure that you understand everything.

1. The following table shows the data of a way that a medicine is absorbed in the organism of Lucas, the dog.
The veterinarian forgot the amount he injected.
Time (hours) 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
Y (grams) 76,20 60,48 48,00 38,10 30,24 24,00 19,05 15,12 12,00 9,52 7,56
a). What is the factor growth (decay) per hour? How do you find it?

Es b=0.7937 y es decreciente. Se encontró dividiendo el valor de y sobre el valor y anterior. Por ejemplo
60,48/76,20.

b). Tell the veterinarian the initial amount of medicine he injected to Lucas. Show the process you use to find it.

El valor inicial es 192.01 en la hora cero. El proceso es dividir 76,2 / 0.7937 4 en el caso de usar la cuarta hora.
Pero se puede realizar el mismo proceso con otras horas.

(0, 192.01) (1,152.4) (2, 120.96) (3, 96)

c). Find the equation of the exponential model of the data, in terms of the factor growth (decay) per hour. }
y= 192.01 (0.7937 x ¿

d). What is the half-life of the medicine in the organism of the dog?
Es 3 horas. Cada 3 horas el medicamento se reduce a su mitad.

e). Find the equation of the exponential model of the data, in terms of half-life
N= 192.01 (0.5 ¿ ¿t / 3

f). Using both equations (in terms of half-life and in terms of factor growth per unit of time) to find the
amount of medicine in Lucas after 24 hours. Show process.

1. Y=192.01(0.7937 ¿ ¿24 y=0.75g

24 /3
2. N=192.01 (0.5 ¿ ¿ y= 0.75g

g). Is there a moment when there is no trace of medicine in Lucas’s organism? Justify your answer.
After how long will there be 22 gr of medicine in the body of Lucas?

a. Siempre va a haber medicina en el cuerpo de Lucas pues en este caso la asíntota es y=0 lo que significa que nunca va a llegar
a 0 la cantidad de medicamento
b. Después de 9.37 horas van a haber 22g de medicina. (encontrar intercepto en la calculadora de la ecuación con y=22 en una )
2. The population of the world in 2000 was 6.1 billion, and the estimated growth rate was 1.4% per year. If the
population grows exponentially.
a). Write the equation that models that growth
y= 6,1x1012 (1+0.014 ¿ ¿t
6,1 billons =6,1x1012

b). If the population continues to grow at this rate, find the population in 2030.
Y= 6,1 billones (1+0.014 ¿ ¿30
The population will be of 9,256962 billion people.

c). When will it reach 12.1 billion?

12,1x1012= 6,1billones (1+0.014 ¿ ¿t

It will be after 49 years. So, it will be in the year 2049

3. Actually, the 10th graders of CSFR invest $200,000 in a CDT with a 6% annual interest rate.  How much the
10th graders will have in exactly one year and in two years if:
a). It is invested at the same annual interest rate, but compounded quarterly. (Use at least 3 decimals in your process

In one year= M=200,000(1+

0.06 4 = After one year they will have 212272.7101 dollars.
)
4
In two years= M=200,000(1+
0.06 8 = After two years the will have 225298.5173 dollars in total.
)
4
b). It is invested at the same annual interest rate but compounded monthly.  (Use at least 3 decimals in your process)

M=200,000(1+
0.06 12 = After one year they will have 212335.5624 dollars
)
12
M=200,000(1+
0.06 24
) =¿ After two years they will have 225431.9552 dollars
12
c). It is invested at the same annual interest rate but compounded continuously. (Use at least 3 decimals in your
process)

After one year they will have 212367.3093 dollars M= 200000e 0.06
After two years they will have 225499.3703 dollars M= 200000e 0.12

d). How long will it take to get $400,000, if the money is invested at continuously interest
It will take about 11.55245 months to get $400,000

400,000=200,000e 0.06 x
4. Cooling Soup. A hot bowl of soup is served at a dinner party. It starts to cool so that its temperature at time t is
given by T ( t )=155 ¿ where t is measured in minutes and T is measured in °F.
a). What is the initial temperature of the soup?
b). What is the temperature after 10 min?
c). After how long will the temperature be 100 °F?
d). Why does this situation is modeling with an equation using number e?

5. The cost of a new sports car is $ 34,000. If it depreciates at a rate of 18% per year.
a). Determine the equation that represents your depreciation of the car over time.
b). What is the value of the sports car after 5 years?
c). After how many years has the value of the car depreciated by $ 5,700?

6. An hourly bacteria culture grows exponentially. The graph shows the results from the moment the
experiment starts.

a). How many bacteria were there initially

b) What is the equation that represents its behavior ( y=a b x
)?
c). How many bacteria will there be after 5 hours?
d). If there are 182 250 in the culture, how long does it take
for that amount of bacteria?

7. Inflation is the incresing value of money; that is, if an item that cost $ 100,000 after one year it will costs
$107,000. Suppose inflation is held constant at 19% per year for an item.
a). What is the equation that represents the annual inflation of any item?
b). How much will a 48” TV cost in 4 years if its current price is $ 3,000,000?
c). How time will the TV cost at $10,138,000?

8. For each function determine the range, y-intercept, and asymptote. Tell if they are exponential growth or
decay and make its sketch.
Horizontal Domain Range y-intercept Growth? or Decay?
