Total solar eclipses occur on a regular and predictable basis. One that could be viewed in parts of the United States occurred on March 7, 1970. The saros cycle is a period of 18 years, 11 1 3 days, and solar eclipses occur according to this cycle. For the purposes of this exercise, we ignore leap years and assume that a year is exactly 365 days. Because the saros cycle is not a whole number of days, but instead is one-third of a day longer than a day, at the end of the saros cycle, Earth will have rotated one-third revolution beyond its location at the beginning of the cycle. Thus, if a solar eclipse is viewable at a certain location, the next solar eclipse will not be. How long after March 7, 1970, will a solar eclipse again be viewable from the United States?

David estimated he had about 20 fish in his pond. a year later, there were about 1.5 times as many fish. the year after that, the number of fish increased by a factor of 1.5 again. the number of fish is modeled by f(x)=20(1.5)^x. create a question you could ask that could be answered only by graphing or using a logarithm.
