How does a linear function behave?

Back

A linear function adds the same value (slope) for each unit increase in 'x', resulting in a constant rate of change.

How does an exponential function behave?

Back

An exponential function increases (or decreases) at a rate proportional to its current value, leading to rapid growth or decay.

What is the difference between linear and exponential growth?

Back

Linear growth adds a constant amount over time, while exponential growth multiplies by a constant factor, leading to much faster increases.

What does the graph of an exponential function look like?

Back

The graph of an exponential function is a curve that increases rapidly (or decreases) as 'x' increases.
