apply exponential and logarithmic models
Concept- Match wording to compound-interest formulas.
- $\log_b(x)=y\iff b^y=x$.

Model the Skill: apply exponential and logarithmic models
Find the balance for $2500$ at 5.2% compounded quarterly for 6 years, then convert $\log_2(32)=5$.
- $A=2500(1+0.052/4)^{24}\approx3408.53$.
- $\log_2(32)=5$ is equivalent to $2^5=32$.
- The interest result uses dollars; the logarithmic conversion is dimensionless.

solve angle, arc, and sector problems
Concept- Convert angles before applying $s=r\theta$ or $A=\tfrac12r^2\theta$.
- Use circle theorems only after identifying the intercepted arc.

Model the Skill: solve angle, arc, and sector problems
Convert $5\pi/6$ to degrees and find arc length for $r=9$, $\theta=2\pi/3$.
- $(5\pi/6)(180^\circ/\pi)=150^\circ$.
- $s=r\theta=9(2\pi/3)=6\pi$ units.
- Radians cancel in the arc-length calculation.

Model the Skill: choose area, similarity, and speed strategies
Find a trapezoid area with bases 10 and 16 and height 7, then solve $6/9=x/15$.
- $A=\tfrac12(10+16)(7)=91$ square units.
- $9x=90$, so $x=10$.
- Formula choice follows the given measurements and correspondence.

Student practiceSolve $6/9=x/15$. Then find the rim speed of a wheel with radius 0.4 m turning at 5 rad/s.
Feedback and solution- $9x=90$, so $x=10$.
- $v=r\omega=0.4(5)=2$ m/s.
