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).
