Distinguish between situations that can be modeled with linear functions and with exponential functions.

Recognize situations in which one quantity changes at a constant rate per unit interval relative to another.

Recognize situations in which a quantity grows or decays by a constant percent rate per unit interval relative to another.

Construct linear and exponential functions, including arithmetic and geometric sequences, given a graph, a description of a relationship, or two input-output pairs (include reading these from a table).

Choose a level of accuracy appropriate to limitations on measurement when reporting quantities.

Fit a function to the data; use functions fitted to data to solve problems in the context of the data. Use given functions or choose a function suggested by the context. Emphasize linear, quadratic, and exponential models.
