Question

Write an increasing exponential equation and state the starting point (also known asthe y-intercept)

Answer 1

The general form of an increasing exponential equation is:

`y=A\cdot(1+r)^(b\cdot x)`

With the following restrictions:

`\begin{gathered} A>0 \\ r>0 \\ b>0 \end{gathered}`

Here, A is the starting point (the y-intercept), because y = A when x = 0.
