What is an exponential function?
Back
An exponential function is a mathematical function of the form f(x) = a * b^x, where 'a' is a constant, 'b' is the base (a positive real number), and 'x' is the exponent.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the general form of an exponential function?
Back
The general form of an exponential function is f(x) = a * b^x, where 'a' is the initial value, 'b' is the growth factor, and 'x' is the exponent.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does an exponential function differ from a linear function?
Back
An exponential function grows by a constant factor (multiplication) for each unit increase in x, while a linear function grows by a constant amount (addition).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does it mean for a function to triple every day?
Back
It means that the function is exponential, specifically of the form f(x) = initial amount * 3^x, where the initial amount is multiplied by 3 for each day.
