• It crosses the x-axis.

• It gets further and further from the x-axis.

• It gets closer and closer to the x-axis, but never touches it.

• It gets closer and closer to the y-axis, but never touches it.

• The function is increasing.

• The function is decreasing.

• The graph intersects the x-axis.

• The y-intercept is (0,2).

• The function is increasing.

• The function is decreasing.

• The graph intersects the x-axis.

• It crosses the x-axis.

• It gets further and further from the x-axis.

• It gets closer to the x-axis, but never touches it.

(From Notes: Exponential Functions)

The graph will increase when...

• b>1

• b<1

• 0<b<1

• b<0

(From Notes: Exponential Functions)

The graph will decrease when...

• b>1

• b=1

• 0<b<1

• b=0

(From Worksheet: Exploring the Patterns of Exponents)

Fill in the missing boxes.

• 3, 9, 27

• 3, 6, 9

• The graph represents exponential growth, because b>1.

• The graph represents exponential decay, because 0<b<1.

• The graph represents exponential growth, because the exponent is an x

• The graph represents exponential decay, because the exponent is an x
