Exponential Parent Functions
In an exponential decay function y=ab^x, with a > 0 and 0 < b < 1, the value b is the decay factor.
An exponential equation contains the form bcx, with the exponent including a variable.
A natural logarithm function is a logarithm function with base e. The natural logarithm function, y = ln x, is y = loge x. It is the inverse of y = ex.
A function with the general form y=ab^x, a ≠ 0, with b > 0, and b ≠ 1.
Growth Factor
A logarithmic equation is an equation that includes a logarithm involving a variable.
A natural base exponential function is an exponential functio with base e.
n an exponential growth function y = ab^x, with a > 0 and b > 1, the value b is the growth factor.
Logarithm
Natural Base Exponential Function
A line that a graph approches as x or y increases in absolute value.
The inverse of an exponential function.
The logarithm base b of a positive number x is defined as follows: logbx = y, if and only if x = b^y.
