What is exponential growth?

Back

Exponential growth occurs when a quantity increases by a consistent percentage over a period of time, resulting in a rapid increase. For example, if a population doubles every year, it is experiencing exponential growth.

What is exponential decay?

Back

Exponential decay occurs when a quantity decreases by a consistent percentage over a period of time, leading to a rapid decrease. For example, radioactive substances decay exponentially over time.

How can you identify exponential growth from a graph?

Back

Exponential growth is identified on a graph by a curve that rises steeply to the right, indicating that the quantity increases rapidly over time.
