1A Exponential Decay and Growth

What is the Exponential equation?

• $y=mx+b$

• $y=a\left(b\right)^x$

• $y=b\left(a\right)^x$

• $y=abx$

35% as a decimal is

• 3.5

• 0.035

• 35.0

• 0.35

Select all that apply to the function

 $y=5\left(0.88\right)^x$  

• this represents an exponential decay

• my initial value is 5

• my decay factor is 0.88

• when graphed, the function will be decreasing
