FUN-7.F—Interpret the meaning of a differential equation and its variables in context
- FUN-7.F Interpret the meaning of a differential equation and its variables in context.
- FUN-7.F.1 Specific applications of finding general and particular solutions to differential equations include motion along a line and exponential growth and decay.
- FUN-7.F.2 The model for exponential growth and decay that arises from the statement “The rate of change of a quantity is proportional to the size of the quantity” is dy/dt = ky.
- Enduring understanding FUN-7: Solving differential equations allows us to determine functions and develop models.
