Linear vs Exponential flashcard review

Front

What is the domain of a linear function?

Back

The domain of a linear function is all real numbers, represented as (-∞, ∞).

Front

What is the range of a linear function?

Back

The range of a linear function is also all real numbers, represented as (-∞, ∞).

Front

What is the domain of an exponential function?

Back

The domain of an exponential function is all real numbers, represented as (-∞, ∞).

Front

What is the range of an exponential function?

Back

The range of an exponential function is (0, ∞).

Front

What is a y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the graph of a function crosses the y-axis, represented as (0, f(0)).

Front

How do you find the y-intercept of a function?

Back

To find the y-intercept, substitute x = 0 into the function and solve for y.

Front

What is end behavior in functions?

Back

End behavior describes how the values of a function behave as x approaches positive or negative infinity.

Front

What does it mean if a function is increasing?

Back

A function is increasing if its output values rise as the input values increase.

Front

What does it mean if a function is decreasing?

Back

A function is decreasing if its output values fall as the input values increase.

Front

What is the difference between linear and exponential growth?

Back

Linear growth increases by a constant amount, while exponential growth increases by a constant percentage.
