This math topic focuses on solving exponential growth scenarios to determine the initial value of a quantity. The problems involve calculating the starting populations of rabbits and insects, the initial amount of debt on credit cards, and the starting cash in a savings account based on their growth over time at specified rates. The exercises require an understanding of exponential functions and involve reversing the exponential growth formula to find the original value before growth occurred. Each question is presented with multiple-choice solutions involving mathematical expressions for students to select the correct formula and solution.
