Exponential Functions

Exponential Functions and Their Graphs

Irrational Exponents If b is a positive number and x is a real number, the expression bx always represents a positive number. It is also true that the familiar properties of exponents hold for irrational exponents.

Exponential Functions An exponential function with base b is defined by the equation x is a real number. The domain of any exponential function is the interval The range is the interval

One-to-One Exponential Functions

Compound Interest

Example 4: The parents of a newborn child invest $8,000 in a plan that earns 9% interest, compounded quarterly. If the money is left untouched, how much will the child have in the account in 55 years?

Future value of account Example 4 Solution: Using the compound interest formula: Future value of account in 55 years

Base e Exponential Functions Sometimes called the natural base, often appears as the base of an exponential functions. It is the base of the continuous compound interest formula:

Example 5: If the parents of the newborn child in Example 4 had invested $8,000 at an annual rate of 9%, compounded continuously, how much would the child have in the account in 55 years?

Future value of account Example 5 Solution: Future value of account in 55 years

Graphing Make a table and plot points:
