FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Back
An exponential function is a mathematical function of the form f(x) = a(b)^x, where 'a' is a constant, 'b' is the base (a positive real number), and 'x' is the exponent.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does it mean for a function to exhibit exponential growth?
Back
Exponential growth occurs when the base 'b' in the function f(x) = a(b)^x is greater than 1, resulting in the function increasing rapidly as 'x' increases.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does it mean for a function to exhibit exponential decay?
Back
Exponential decay occurs when the base 'b' in the function f(x) = a(b)^x is between 0 and 1, resulting in the function decreasing rapidly as 'x' increases.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Identify the y-intercept of the function f(x) = 5(2)^x.
Back
The y-intercept is 5, which is the value of the function when x = 0.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you determine if a function is exponential growth or decay from its equation?
Back
If the base 'b' is greater than 1, it is exponential growth. If the base 'b' is between 0 and 1, it is exponential decay.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the y-intercept of the function f(x) = 3(0.5)^x?
Back
The y-intercept is 3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the general form of an exponential function?
Back
The general form is f(x) = a(b)^x, where 'a' is the initial value and 'b' is the growth/decay factor.
