Step 1:  Review this video that we watched in class.   It explains what exponential growth would look like in a zombie apocalypse. 

Step 2:  Look at the graph below.  The graph below is an exponential graph.  That means that every day the number of zombies will double.  

 

 

Graph Details for Exponential Growth

Day 0	1 Zombie
Day 1	2 Zombies
Day 2	4 Zombies
Day 3	8 Zombies
Day 4	16 Zombies
Day 5	32 Zombies
Day 6	64 Zombies
Day 7	128 Zombies
Day 8	256 Zombies
Day 9	512 Zombies
Day 10	1024 Zombies
Day 11	2048 Zombies
Day 12	4096 Zombies

 

Step 3:  Compare that information to a linear graph (below).  In this example every day there are 10 new zombies.
