2 1. All graphs pass through the point (0, 1). b 0 = 1 for any permissible base b. 2. All graphs are continuous, with no holes or jumps. 3. The x axis is a horizontal asymptote. 4. If b > 1, then b x increases as x increases. 5. If 0 < b < 1, then b x decreases as x increases. 6. The function f is one-to-one. x y 1 y =b x 0 <b < 1 y =b x b > 1 DOMAIN = (– ,  )RANGE = (0,  ) Basic Properties of the Graph of f(x) = b x, b > 0, b  1 4-1-39
