1.   For equations of the form y = ax, where a is a constant, what is true about a if the y-values change little for small values of x, but increase quickly for large x values?
    A. a > 1 B. –1 < a < 0
    C. 0 < a < 1 D. a = 1
    Hint

  2.   Use a graph in order to approximate .

    C. 112.6 D. 0.0089
    Hint

  3.   A guest on a talk show tends to receive many phone calls right after she is on the show, and then the calls become less frequent. This can be represented by the equation y = 20(0.53)d, where y is the number of phone calls after d days. On what day should she expect to have 3 calls?
    A. 15 B. 2
    C. 3 D. 10
    Hint

  4.   Given the coordinates (0, 3), (1, 11), (2, 19), (3, 27), would a graph of these points exhibit exponential behavior?
    A. no, it would display linear behavior B. yes, exponential behavior only
    C. no, it would not display exponential or linear behavior D. yes, exponential and linear behavior
    Hint
