Front

How can you write an exponential function from a table of values?

Back

To write an exponential function from a table, identify the initial value (y-intercept) and the growth factor by analyzing the ratio of consecutive outputs.

Front

What is the significance of the base in an exponential function?

Back

The base of an exponential function determines the rate of growth or decay; if the base is greater than 1, the function grows; if it is between 0 and 1, it decays.

Front

What does the term 'exponential growth' mean?

Back

Exponential growth refers to an increase that occurs at a rate proportional to the current value, leading to rapid growth over time.
