OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

First you will focus on actual viral growth inside a human body. Pick a virus and research its growth rate. If you are having trouble finding a growth rate for a specific virus, make up your own growth rate. Use your growth rate to create an exponential growth function. Make a table for the number of virions (virus particles) that can grow inside a human body. Start with one virion on the first day, and continue the table for two weeks. How does that compare to the number of cells in a person’s body? You will submit the following. a. a comparison to the overall number of cells b. a growth function c. a table of virions

@triciaal

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

i want the growth rate to be 5

OpenStudy (triciaal):

sounds like a bio project

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

its for algebra 2

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

we are doing logs and crap

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

this is only part 1 of 6

OpenStudy (triciaal):

a rate has to have units its a ratio of the 2 quantities how many what per whatever

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

this is why i hate honors and i have to take ap cal my senior year :(

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

so 5 day 2 25 like that

OpenStudy (triciaal):

example 5 virons per day

OpenStudy (triciaal):

that's when the fun begins

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

so my table would be day 1 5 day 2 10 and so on ?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

kind of not a linear function basically exponential means not even and very fast example your squares 1,4, 9 .16 increasing but not the same amount each time and by a lot more the next time

OpenStudy (triciaal):

@mathmate please help with this

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

day 1 5 day 2 25 day 3 125?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

sorry i have to leave

OpenStudy (triciaal):

@zepdrix please help

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

@bonnieisflash1.0

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

how is this algebra

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

its algebra 2 its really more pre cal stuff we are learning

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

this should help

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

thats only part 1

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

oh crap okay

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

where is part two

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

i have 6 parts

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

holy i can help than i think

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

lol i did part 4 yay welcome to honors lol

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

okay

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

where are the other parts

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

@kaylak12345 are you there

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

sorry working on some parts

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

okay

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

where she go

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

im here and i have a few patrs left

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

okay

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

almost done lol apparently im smart

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

what school do you go to jw

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

how do you make a growth function

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

sry afk

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

Calculates predicted exponential growth by using existing data. GROWTH returns the y-values for a series of new x-values that you specify by using existing x-values and y-values. You can also use the GROWTH worksheet function to fit an exponential curve to existing x-values and y-values.

OpenStudy (kaylak12345):

im almost done it ok

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

GROWTH(known_y's, [known_x's], [new_x's], [const]) The GROWTH function syntax has the following arguments: Known_y's Required. The set of y-values you already know in the relationship y = b*m^x. If the array known_y's is in a single column, then each column of known_x's is interpreted as a separate variable. If the array known_y's is in a single row, then each row of known_x's is interpreted as a separate variable. If any of the numbers in known_y's is 0 or negative, GROWTH returns the #NUM! error value. Known_x's Optional. An optional set of x-values that you may already know in the relationship y = b*m^x. The array known_x's can include one or more sets of variables. If only one variable is used, known_y's and known_x's can be ranges of any shape, as long as they have equal dimensions. If more than one variable is used, known_y's must be a vector (that is, a range with a height of one row or a width of one column). If known_x's is omitted, it is assumed to be the array {1,2,3,...} that is the same size as known_y's. New_x's Optional. Are new x-values for which you want GROWTH to return corresponding y-values. New_x's must include a column (or row) for each independent variable, just as known_x's does. So, if known_y's is in a single column, known_x's and new_x's must have the same number of columns. If known_y's is in a single row, known_x's and new_x's must have the same number of rows. If new_x's is omitted, it is assumed to be the same as known_x's. If both known_x's and new_x's are omitted, they are assumed to be the array {1,2,3,...} that is the same size as known_y's. Const Optional. A logical value specifying whether to force the constant b to equal 1. If const is TRUE or omitted, b is calculated normally. If const is FALSE, b is set equal to 1 and the m-values are adjusted so that y = m^x.
