Value of “n”FormulaValueSignificance Annually Semi-Annually Quarterly Monthly Daily Hourly Minutely 31,536, , , Secondly Use the expression to fill in the table: I. The Euler Number
II. The Natural Base The Natural Base e: The natural base e is irrational. It is defined as follows: As n approaches ∞ approaches e ≈ Directions: Simplify the natural base expressions 1. e 2 e 5 e 2+5 e7e7 2. 4e 4-3 4e 3. (5e -3x ) e -6x Directions: Evaluate each expression with a calculator 1. e e 3/
III. Graphing a Natural Base Exponential Function Form: f(x) = ae rx If a > 0 and r > 0, then the function is an exponential growth If a > 0 and r < 0, then the function is an exponential decay
Graph: f(x) = 3e.25x Exponential Growth x f(x) Domain: All Real Numbers Range: y > 0 III. Graphing a Natural Base Exponential Function
Graph: f(x) = e.-0.75(x - 2) + 1 Exponential Decay x f(x) Domain: All Real Numbers Range: y > 1 III. Graphing a Natural Base Exponential Function
