How to graph an exponential function by using a table

The video tutorial explains how to graph exponential equations in the form y = a * B^X. It covers identifying the Y intercept, plotting points on the graph, and understanding the behavior of exponential growth graphs. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of choosing points around the Y intercept and explains the concept of asymptotes and increasing slopes.

What is the Y-intercept of the exponential function y = a * B^X when a = 1/2?

• 1

• B

• 1/2

• 0

When graphing an exponential function, what is a recommended method for choosing points to plot?

• Use only positive X values

• Choose points randomly

• Select points to the left and right of the Y-intercept

• Use only the Y-intercept

How can a negative exponent be rewritten as a positive exponent?

• By multiplying the base by 2

• By placing the base in the denominator

• By subtracting 1 from the exponent

• By adding 1 to the exponent

What is the decimal equivalent of 3/2?

• 3.5

• 2.5

• 1.5

• 0.5

Why is the graph of y = a * B^X considered a growth graph?

• Because B is greater than one

• Because B is less than one

• Because a is less than zero

• Because a is equal to zero
