options: For exponential models, express as a logarithm the solution to ab^(ct) = d where a, c, and d are numbers and the base b is 2, 10, or e; evaluate the logarithm using technology.

Distinguish between situations that can be modeled with linear functions and with exponential functions.

Construct linear and exponential functions, including arithmetic and geometric sequences, given a graph, a description of a relationship, or two input-output pairs (include reading these from a table).

Observe using graphs and tables that a quantity increasing exponentially eventually exceeds a quantity increasing linearly, quadratically, or (more generally) as a polynomial function.
problem_activity: Below is a graph of the height of a toy rocket over time. This is modeled by a quadratic function.

Describe the features of the function in terms of the intercepts, intervals where the function is increasing/decreasing, and intervals where the rate of change is constant/increasing/decreasing. Describe what each of these features means in the context of the problem.
