How do you identify an exponential function from a graph?

Back

An exponential function will show a curve that rises or falls sharply, rather than a straight line. The y-values will increase or decrease rapidly as x increases.

What is the difference between linear and exponential functions?

Back

Linear functions increase or decrease by a constant amount, while exponential functions increase or decrease by a constant percentage.

Front

What is the significance of the base in an exponential function?

Back

The base determines the rate of growth or decay. A base greater than 1 indicates growth, while a base between 0 and 1 indicates decay.
