Demystifying - Growth and decay review

Drills

Calculating repeated growth and decay with multipliers raised to powers.

Author note — to cover
  • Fluency — compound interest and depreciation over two or three periods, rates like 10% and 20% keeping every balance exact (4 questions).
  • Exponential change — doubling populations and halving doses, and counting the periods until a target is passed (4 questions).
  • Contrast — simple against compound interest and linear against exponential growth, where adding the same amount each year is the planted model (4 questions).
