Exploring Key Features of Exponential Functions

What distinguishes a linear function's growth rate from that of an exponential function?

• Linear functions grow by multiplication, while exponential functions grow by addition.

• Exponential functions grow at a constant rate, while linear functions do not.

• Linear functions grow at a constant rate, while exponential functions do not.

• There is no difference in growth rates between linear and exponential functions.

What happens to the value of an exponential function when the exponent is zero?

• It becomes one.

• It becomes zero.

• It doubles.

• It is undefined.
