2. 1.) Use a table to record your results.
Number
Of toss 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Number of chips remaining
100 66 32 13

4. 1.) Describe any pattern suggested by the scatter plot.
Drawing Conclusions
1.) Describe any pattern suggested by the scatter plot.
The pattern we see is that it decreases by about ½ of the remaining chips
2.) Look at your data and scatter plot to complete the following statement.
Each time the cup is emptied, the number of chips you remove is about ½ of the number in the cup.

5. 3.) Write an exponential equation to model this situation
Y=100(0.5)x
0-100
1st – 100(1/2)
2nd -100(1/2)2
3rd – 100(1/2)3
