What do exponential functions model in the real world? How does the

situation?

They model various situations where there is an increasing curve. An example is if you throw a baseball and it curves back down as gravity has more and more of a affect on it. This would be a different equation than if you threw a basketball as the basketball wouldn't go as high but would have about the same downwards acceleration due to gravity.
