这部分需要会什么?
- 将增长率或衰减率转换为乘数
- 匹配时间单位与指数周期
- 处理复利、倍增和半衰模型
核心概念与公式
每期增长率为 \(r\) 时,\(P(t)=P_0(1+r)^t\);每期减少比例 \(r\) 时,\(P(t)=P_0(1-r)^t\)。这里 \(r\) 用小数表示,\(t\) 是经历的期数。
若每 \(d\) 个时间单位翻倍,可写 \(P(t)=P_0\,2^{t/d}\);每 \(d\) 个时间单位减半,则为 \(P_0(1/2)^{t/d}\)。名义年利率 \(r\)、每年复利 \(n\) 次的模型为 \(P_0(1+r/n)^{nt}\),其中 \(t\) 以年计。
做题时怎样使用
- 标出初始量、每期变化率和每期有多长
- 将百分率改为乘数,并把时间换成对应期数
- 比较两时刻时可求比值,消去共同的初始量
容易混淆的地方
增长 5% 的乘数是 1.05;衰减 5% 的乘数是 0.95。每两小时增长 10%,指数应为小时数除以 2。
用一个例题串起方法
知识点教学例题某种数量初始为 500,每 3 小时增长 20%。求 6 小时后的数量。
展开解题思路 +
6 小时包含 \(6/3=2\) 期,所以数量为 \(500(1.2)^2=720\)。不是在初值上只增加一次 40%。

Kao measured the temperature of a cup of hot chocolate placed in a room with a constant temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit (°F). The temperature of the hot chocolate was 185°F at 6:00 p.m. when it started cooling. The temperature of the hot chocolate was 156°F at 6:05 p.m. and 135°F at 6:10 p.m. The hot chocolate’s temperature continued to decrease. Of the following functions, which best models the temperature T(m) , in degrees Fahrenheit, of Kao’s hot chocolate m minutes after it started cooling?
