Lesson Plan: Graphs of Exponential Functions Mathematics
This lesson plan includes the objectives, prerequisites, and exclusions of the lesson teaching students how to sketch and identify the graphical transformations of exponential functions.
Objectives
Students will be able to
- sketch the graph of an exponential function,
- identify the domain and range of an exponential function using its graph,
- find where a given exponential graph intersects the axes,
- find a missing value in an exponential equation given a point it passes through.
Prerequisites
Students should already be familiar with
- the exponential function.
Exclusions
Students will not cover
- applications of the exponential function,
- the natural exponential function.
