This topic focuses on the application of exponential decay functions in continuous scenarios. Students are presented with a series of problem statements requiring them to match scenarios to given exponential decay equations. The scenarios generally involve populations of organisms or concentrations of substances decreasing over time due to a continuous percentage change. Each problem provides an equation and two potential real-world contexts, such as declining populations of whales or bacteria, or decaying concentrations of radioactive materials or toxins. Students must identify which scenario accurately reflects the equation.
