Solver and Continuous Exponential Growth

In this lesson, you will learn how to use the Solver function on a TI graphing calculator for a continuous exponential growth model. You will be shown how to enter the formulas necessary for solving exponentials, finite compounding, and logistic equations. Using a real-world example, the video will walk you through how to load Solver with the necessary variables and solve for the output. By the end of the lesson, you will have a better understanding of how to solve exponential growth problems using a TI graphing calculator.
