How do you identify exponential growth from a graph?

Back

Exponential growth is identified by a curve that rises steeply to the right, indicating that the function increases rapidly as x increases.

How do you identify exponential decay from a graph?

Back

Exponential decay is identified by a curve that falls steeply to the right, indicating that the function decreases rapidly as x increases.

What is the significance of the constant 'a' in an exponential function?

Back

The constant 'a' represents the initial value or the y-intercept of the function when x = 0.

What does it mean if the base 'b' is greater than 1?

Back

If the base 'b' is greater than 1, the function represents exponential growth.
