Exponential Functions and Graphs

The video tutorial covers graphing exponential functions, focusing on exponential growth and decay. It explains the domain and range of these functions and how to identify them on a graph. The tutorial also demonstrates how to graph exponential functions using data and calculators, providing practical examples and step-by-step instructions.

What was the main focus of the class experiment mentioned in the introduction?

• Creating straight line graphs

• Understanding linear functions

• Exploring curvy graphs

• Learning about quadratic functions

How can you identify exponential growth on a graph?

• The graph forms a straight line

• The graph remains constant

• The graph moves farther from the x-axis

• The graph moves closer to the x-axis

What is the domain of an exponential function that extends infinitely in both directions?

• Only integers

• All real numbers

• All positive numbers

• All negative numbers

If a graph's growth rate is less than 1, what type of graph is it?

• Quadratic decay

• Linear growth

• Exponential decay

• Exponential growth

In the first example graph, what is the range of the Y values?

• Y values are above 0

• Y values are below 0

• Y values are above -1

• Y values are below -1

What does an exponential graph look like when plotted using ordered pairs?

• A circle

• A straight line

• A zigzag pattern

• An airplane taking off

How do you create an exponential graph without a data table?

• By drawing random points

• By using a ruler

• By using a calculator for calculations

• By guessing the values
