FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the difference between linear and exponential growth?

Back

Linear growth increases by a constant amount, while exponential growth increases by a percentage of the current value, leading to faster growth over time.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the formula for calculating the value of an exponential function?

Back

The formula is y = ab^x, where a is the initial value, b is the growth factor, and x is the time or number of periods.
