Exponential Functions

The document discusses exponential functions and their applications. It begins by introducing population growth as an example of an exponential function, with the growth rate increasing over time. Exponential functions can model population growth, money growing in a bank account, and radioactive decay. The document then provides examples of determining whether a given situation represents an exponential function, equation, or inequality. It also discusses representing real-life situations like bacterial growth, interest accumulation, and decay using exponential functions. Examples are given for modeling population growth, radioactive decay, and compound interest. In closing, the key characteristics of exponential functions are summarized, including the natural exponential function which uses the base e. An activity asks the reader to write exponential functions for situations

Week 5 and 6
Population growth is believed to be
continuous overtime and there is an
increase in growth rate over time.
This scenario illustrates the exponential
function.
Population growth of organisms, growth of
money in the bank, as well as decay of a
substance, are some of the occurrences
where exponential functions are used.

The beauty of Mathematics can be found
everywhere.
Sometimes, you are not aware that in front of
you are situations which can be written as a
Mathematics model.

Some conditions in life increase and decrease


tremendously such as the growth of bacteria,
interest of an investment or an amount loaned,
depreciation or appreciation of the market value
of a certain product, and even the decay of
microorganism.
An exponential expression is an
expression of the form

where (a, c and d are real
numbers and ).

An exponential equation or inequality
can be solved for all values that satisfy
the equation or inequality.

An exponential function is not `solved’.


Rather, it expresses a relationship
between two variables (such as x and y),
and can be represented by a table of
values or a graph.

An exponential function with
the base is a function of the

The base 𝑏 is restricted to positive real numbers to


ensure that is always a real number.
Also, base 𝑏 cannot be equal to 1, for if , then , and
it will be a constant function.

Natural Exponential Function
While an exponential function may have various bases, a
frequently used base is the irrational number , whose value is
approximately 2.71828.
Because is a commonly used base, the natural exponential
function is defined as having as the base.
The natural exponential function is the function.
