(7.1 & 7.2) NOTES- Exponential Growth and Decay
Definition: Consider the exponential function: if 0 < a < 1: exponential decay if a > 1: exponential growth Asymptote: A line that a graph approaches, but never reaches (boundary line)
Ex: Graph the given exponential function using a table and identifying the following: xy a=______ C= ______ (circle one) exponential decay or growth y- intercept: _________ equation of asymptote: __________ d: __________ r: _____________ /4 1/ y = 0
Transformations: Eq. of asymptote: Domain: Range: Left 3 y = 0 yx /4 1/
Transformations: Eq. of asymptote: Domain: Range: Right 2, down 4 y = -4 yx /4 1/
Transformations: Eq. of asymptote: Domain: Range: Reflect in x-axis, up 3 y = 3 yx /4 1/
Transformations: Eq. of asymptote: Domain: Range: Right 2, down 1 y = -1 yx /4 1/
