Exponential Growth and Decay Digital Math Escape Room Activity

An engaging algebra escape room activity for solving exponential growth and decay word problems. Students must unlock 5 locks by answering questions related to growth and decay graphs and word problems. Questions are grouped 4 per puzzle, resulting in five 4-letter codes that will unlock all 5 locks.

Problems include: 

• Determine an exponential function's value at a given time, 
• Determine the time it takes an exponential function to reach a given value. 

The entire activity is housed in one GOOGLE Form. There are no links to outside websites. The 4-letter codes are set with answer validation so that students cannot move to the next puzzle until they enter the correct code. Includes answer key.

To add the digital escape room to your Google Drive: please open the PDF and click the button on page 3.

A printable PDF version has also been added to the file. Students can work in groups, each group starting at a different puzzle. Once done, students check the NEXT STEP box for which puzzle to visit next.
