Exponential Growth or Decay
The amount N after t time periods (usually years) due to an initial amount , where r is the rate of growth (or decay) can model exponential growth (or decay) with the following formula:
trNN )1(0
0N
Interest is the money paid for the use of money. The total amount borrowed is called the principal. The rate of interest, expressed as a percent, is the amount charged for the use of the principal for a given period of time, usually on a yearly (per annum) basis.

Formula: Exponential Growth and Decay (involving ‘e’)
Present and Future Value of an AnnuityAn Annuity is a series of equal payments made at equal intervals of time. The present value of an annuity, , is the sum of the present values of all the periodic payments (P).
The lump-sum investment of dollars now will provide payments of P dollars for n periods.
This formula can be used to find the present value, where i is for interest, n is for the number of payments

Present and Future Value of an Annuity
The future value of an annuity, , is the sum of all of the annuity payments plus any accumulated interest.
This formula can be used to find the future value, where i is for interest, n is for the number of payments

Example: What are the monthly payments on a $11,000 car over 6 years with an APR of 10%?
Present and Future Value of an Annuity
Example: In order to have $50,000 at the end of 10 years, what amount should you deposit each month into an account with an APR of 7.5%?
Present and Future Value of an Annuity

Facts about the Graph of a Logarithmic
Function f x xa( ) log
1. The x-intercept of the graph is 1. There is no y-intercept.
2. The y-axis is a vertical asymptote of the graph.
3. A logarithmic function is decreasing if 0 < a < 1 and increasing if a > 1.
4. The graph is smooth and continuous, with no corners or gaps.

Logarithms and Antilogs
Logarithms with base 10 are called Common Logarithms.
Antilogarithm: if log x = a, then x = antilog a.
Or, you can say that x = 10^a.
Logarithms and Antilogs
Logarithms with base ‘e’ are called Natural Logarithms and are written as ‘ln’
Anti-natural logarithm: if ln x = a,
then x = antiln a. Or, you can say that x = e^a.
Change in Base Formula
If a, b, and n are positive numbers and neither a nor b is 1, then the following formula holds true:
