Review: what is an asymptote?
x)2(10y “Walking halfway to the wall”
An Asymptote is a line that a graph approaches as x or y increases in absolute value.
In this example, the asymptote is the x
axis.

Question: where is the asymptote now?
To move the graph up or down, add or subtract units at the end of the equations. No need to use inverses – if you want to go up, add; if you want to go down, subtract.

To move the graph left or right, add or subtract units to the exponent of the equation. Reminder: use the inverse of how you want the graph to move (e.g. x-4 will move to the right; x+4 will move to the left)

“e = 2.718”
What is base “e” ?e is an irrational number, approximately equal to 2.718.
Exponential functions with a base of e are useful for describing continuous growth or decay. In the graph below, y = e is the asymptote to the graph.
y = e

Graphing ex
• Using your graphing calculators, graph y=ex. Evaluate e4 to four decimal places.
We now need to evaluate where x=4
![Page 10: 8.2 – Properties of Exponential Functions. Review: what is an asymptote? “Walking halfway to the wall” An Asymptote is a line that a graph approaches](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e9d5503460f94b9ee10/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
2. Press 2nd, Calc and select 1 (value). Press enter
3. We are evaluating when x=4. Enter 4 for x and press enter.

The value of e4 is about 54.59815
Your turn: evaluate e-3 0.0498
So, what is “e” good for???

Continuously Compounding Interest
• A = PertA = amount of money in the account
P = principal (how much is deposited)
r = annual rate of interest
t = time (in years)
![Page 13: 8.2 – Properties of Exponential Functions. Review: what is an asymptote? “Walking halfway to the wall” An Asymptote is a line that a graph approaches](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e9d5503460f94b9ee10/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Example: Continuously Compounded Interest Problem
• You invest $1,050 at an annual interest rate of 5.5%, compounded continuously. How much will you have in the account after 5 years?
•Start with:
A = Pert
1050(e)0.055(5)
1050(e)0.275
1050(1.316531)
A = $1382.36
Substitute in for p, r, and t
Simplify they power
Evaluate e0.275 with your calculator
Simplify
P=$1050, r=5.5% = 0.055, t=5

Let’s try one:
• Suppose you invest $1,300 at an annual interest rate of 4.3%, compounded continuously. How much will you have in the account after three years?
