Students will work through a series of worksheets that will teach them about geometric sequences and their applications. Students will work with Newton's Law of Heating and cooling, make predictions about temperatures rising or falling and then they will prove their predictions with equations and graphs. Finally, the students will perform an experiment and use the graphing capabilities of their TI-83 calculators to plot data and find the equation for the line of best fit.
