Module 3 Review - Corn Maze

Hey there! I’m Frank. Can you believe they made this corn maze scarier by adding math problems. Please help me with the math puzzles. I haven’t dared to step in yet, but with your math skills, I think we’ve got a chance! Let’s get started before it gets dark!

We’re about to step into the maze, but it looks like the door’s locked! To get inside and start our adventure, you’ll need to solve this problem. Crack the code, and we can step into the maze—hopefully we’ll find our way through without too many creepy surprises!

Victor invested some money in a bank at a fixed rate of interest compounded annually. The equation below shows the value of his investment after x years: f(x) = 600(1.03)x What was the average rate of change of the value of Victor's investment from the second year to the fifth year?

We’ve reached the scarecrow! He’s wise but needs our help with these exponential problems. If we solve them, he’ll point us in the right direction. Let’s work fast—Frank's freedom depends on it!

Kernel Code is a quirky, sharp-eyed crow who loves puzzles and wordplay, and he has blocked the path until we solve his cipher!

Q: This is a linear function because there is a common difference in the number of corn plants between the months.R: This is a linear function because there is a common ratio in the number of corn plants between the months. S: This is an exponential function because there is a common difference in the number of corn plants between the months. T: This is an exponential function because there is a common ratio in the number of corn plants between the months.

The table represents the number of corn plants remaining in a field after each month, due to pest damage. ​ ​ What type of function best represents the number of corn plants as a function of time?

Aubri applied a pesticide to her corn crop. The table below shows the amount of pesticide g(t), in mg, that remained on the corn plants after time t (in hours): Blake treated his corn with the same pesticide, applying 250 mg. The amount of pesticide h(t), in mg, remaining on his corn after t hours is given by the equation: Which statement best describes the rate at which the crops lose the pesticide? A. Aubri’s loses pesticide at a constant rate, while Blake’s loses it at an increasing rate. B. Blake’s loses pesticide at a slower rate than Aubri’s. C. Aubri’s loses pesticide faster initially, but Blake’s loses it faster over time. D. Both Aubri’s and Blake’s crops lose pesticide at the same rate

Hey, friends! It's Frank here, and this fog is thick! I need your help to find our way out of this misty mess. Keep your eyes peeled for faint glows—they’ll lead you to the right answers. The fog hides a way forward, but only if you solve the problems in the right order. Let’s clear this path together!
