Question

Indicate whether the functions an exponential growth or decay

Answer 1

A function of the form A(t) = Cat where a > 0 and a 1 is an exponential function. The number C gives the initial value of the function (when t = 0) and the number a is the growth (or decay) factor. If a > 1, the function represents growth; If 0 < a < 1, the function represents decay.
