media type="custom" key="25774376"
 * ** Task #2: **Answer the following questions on this Google Form

= In-class Activity: = Students who have not submitted anything via the Google Doc homework check will complete the assignment independently
 * 1) [[image:payitforward.jpg width="286" height="195" align="left"]]Have partners discuss similarities in the videos they watched for homework, share a few ideas out as a class
 * 2) Have a student explain the pay it forward model and how it is EXPONENTIAL GROWTH showing this image
 * 3) Ask for quick guesses how many people 10 levels might impact?
 * 4) Students will work with partners to: Chart out results through 10 levels and Graph results
 * 5) Students will share these results with groups of 4, adjust mistakes, then work together to **write out a function to solve the problem**
 * 6) To check your formula, move on to the Zombie Activity below. Work with **new** partners from the same group of four and apply your function to solve the problem.
 * 7) **Exit Ticket:** Submit Solutions to #5 and Zombie Activity (if completed)--one sheet per pair, both names on the work.

Zombies have come to life in a small central Pennsylvania town and, as zombies often do, are quickly on a brain thirsty rampage that threatens to eliminate the human race. In order to stop the spread of this terrible disaster, and to satisfy humanitarians protesting unfair practice of killing zombies for sport, authorities have quarantined the state of Pennsylvania and decided to just let it run it's course, and turn it into a high security Zombie sanctuary.
 * Extension Activity: Zombie Apocalypse **

Your job as the structural engineer for the sanctuary wall is to decide how much time there is to complete the wall. In other words, how long will it take to zombify the entire population of PA?
 * Hint: you will first need to agree on an average # of victims each zombie can infect in a day.
