This lesson focuses upon developing the exponential function A=Pe^(rt) from a separable differential equation. Next Newton's Law of cooling is explored.
An introduction to first order differential equations and slope fields. A slope field is graphed using Geometer's Sketchpad. Strategies to investigate slope fields are given.
An introduction to first order differential equations and slope fields. A slope field is graphed using Geometer's Sketchpad. Connections to the fundamental theorem of calculus are made.
