What does it mean for a value to decrease exponentially?

Back

A value decreases exponentially when it reduces by a constant percentage over equal intervals of time. For example, if a truck loses 15% of its value every five years, its value decreases exponentially.

What is the half-life of a substance?

Back

The half-life of a substance is the time required for half of the substance to decay or be reduced to half its initial amount. For example, carbon-14 has a half-life of about 5,730 years.

What is the difference between exponential growth and linear growth?

Back

Exponential growth increases at a rate proportional to its current value, leading to faster increases over time, while linear growth increases by a constant amount.

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. A base greater than 1 indicates growth, while a base between 0 and 1 indicates decay.
