Given

The exponential function,


f(x)=5^x

To find:

The exponent in the exponential function.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,


f(x)=5^x

That implies,

Since Exponential functions have the form f(x) = bx, where b > 0 and b ≠ 1. Also in an exponential expression, b is called the base and x is called the exponent.

Hence, the exponent in the given exponential function is x.
