What does the base of an exponential function indicate?

Back

The base of an exponential function indicates the growth or decay rate. If the base is greater than 1, the function represents growth; if it is between 0 and 1, it represents decay.

What is the difference between exponential growth and exponential decay?

Back

Exponential growth occurs when the base of the function is greater than 1, leading to increasing values. Exponential decay occurs when the base is between 0 and 1, leading to decreasing values.
