Lesson 17: Introduction to rate of exponential growth and decayExponential growth & decay word problems
How do you solve word problems involving exponential growth and decay? In this video, you will learn how to use a table and a formula to find the percentage of a radioactive substance that remains after a certain time. You will also see how a common ratio, which is the factor by which the quantity changes every time period, determines the rate of change. You will use a calculator to apply the formula and get the answers. Created by Sal Khan and CK-12 Foundation.
