Answer:
First, let's start with 1:
1^1 = 1
1^2 = 1
1^3 = 1
1^x = 1
It would be quite boring if we used 1
When the base is greater than 1, the function speeds up quickly and zips towards infinity. When the base is less than 1, it gets closer and closer to zero but never reaches it.
If you know what the graph looks like for an exponential graph, imagine you flip it sideways; now you have a backward "J" where the base is less than 1.
