    GENEREAL MATHEMATICS

    WEEK 7: LESSON 1
    PROBLEMS INVOLVING EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION

    MELC: The learner solves problems involving exponential functions.

    OBJECTIVES:

    1. solves problems involving exponential functions


    2. Appreciate the application of exponential functions in real-life
    situations

    A. PROBLEMS INVOLVING EXPONENTIAL FUNCTIONS

    Example 1:

    Suppose a culture of 300 bacteria at ARL Farm is put into a petri dish
    and the culture doubles every 10 hours.

    (b) How many bacteria will there be after 90 hours?

    Exponential Model for Population Growth: y = y0 (rate of growth) t/T

    Conditions:
    300 bacteria at ARL Farm
    doubles (2) every 10 hours

    Solution:
    y0 = 300 bacteria
    rate of growth = 2 (doubles)
    T = every 10 hours
    t = 90 hours

    y = y0 (rate of growth) t/T

    y = 300 (2) 90/10


    y = 300 (2) 9
    y = 153 600

    Conclusion: Therefore, there will be 153 600 bacteria after 90 hours.

    Example 2:

    A certain radioactive substance decays half of itself every 5 days.


    Initially, there are 50 grams. Determine the amount of substance left after 30
    days.

    Exponential Model for Exponential Decay: y = yo (rate of decay) t/T

    Conditions:
    decays half (½) of itself every 5 days
    Initially, there are 50 grams

    Solutions:
    y0 = 50 grams
    rate of decay = ½ (decays half of itself)
    T = every 5 days
    t = 30 days

    y = yo (rate of decay) t/T

    y = 50 (½) 30/5
    y = 50 (½) 6
    y = 0.781

    Conclusion: Therefore, there will be 0.781 grams of radioactive substance after


    30 days.

    Example 3:

    Your mother deposits P10, 000.00 in a bank that pays 3% compound


    interest annually. How much money will she have after 11 years without
    withdrawal?

    Exponential Model for Compound Interest: A = P (1 + r ) t.

    Conditions:
    deposits P10, 000.00 in a bank that pays 3% compound interest annually

    Solution:
    Principal amount = P10 000.00
    interest = 3% or 0.03
    time = 11 years

    A = P (1 + r ) t.
    2
    A = 10,000 (1 + 0.03) 11

    A = 10,000 (1.03) 11
    A = 13,842.34

    Conclusion: Therefore, after 11 years my mother will have P13,842.34.

    Example 4:

    The predicted population of a certain city is given by P = 200 000e (0.03y) where
    y is the number of years after the year 2020. Predict the population for the
    year 2030.

    The natural exponential function is the function f(x) = ex

    Conditions:
    population of a certain city is given by P = 200 000e (0.03y) where y is the
    number of years after the year 2020

    Solution:
    P = 200 000e (0.03y)
    Time = 10years (20230-2020)

    P = 200 000e (0.03x10)


    P = 200 000e (0.3)
    P = 269 971.76

    Conclusion: Therefore, after 10 years the population is 269 972.

    Answer: P = 200 000e (0.03x10)
