Discover what exponential growth is, learn how it differs from other growth types, and explore real-life examples like compounding interest and population growth.
It’s time for us all to understand the Exponential Function. One of the hallmarks of COVID-19 is its exponential nature, with numbers of infected currently doubling about every 4 days in the US. This ...
Have you heard the story of the brilliant guy who invented chess? Legend has it he took the game to the emperor of what is now India. The emperor was so impressed that he told the inventor to name his ...
From a statistical perspective, relationships among variables may take a broad array of forms. Sometimes, two variables may be unrelated to one another, such as (presumably) the scores on some college ...
What’s the greatest shortcoming of the human race? I’m sure we all have some suggestions, but according to physicist Albert Bartlett, it is “our inability to understand the exponential function.” ...
This paper extends uniqueness results due to Boas and Trembinska, on entire functions with exponential growth whose real part vanishes on lattice points. Here the case is studied where the real part ...
A PHASE relation familiar to students of applied mathematics exists between a simple harmonic oscillation and its derivative. Similar relations exist between exponential functions and their ...
