The goal of this task is to get students to focus on the shape of the graph of the equation y=ex and how this changes depending on the sign of the exponent and on whether the exponential is in the numerator or denominator. It is also intended to develop familiarity, in the case of f and k, with the functions which are used in logistic growth models, further examined in ``Logistic Growth Model, Explicit Case'' and ``Logistic Growth Model, Abstract Verson.''

This task asks students to identify which of the six polygons have the same area. Students may complete the task using a variety of techniques including decomposing shapes, using transformations (rotations, reflections, translations) to move one or more parts of the figure to another part to more easily calculate the area, enclosing the polygon inside a larger rectangle and then subtract the areas of the "extra" pieces, etc.
