Answer:

True

Explanation:

In general, the growth rate of exponential functions is far greater than the quadratic function. This can be illustrated through an example.

Consider an exponential function and a quadratic function .

Note that the leading coefficient of the quadratic function is far greater than the base of the exponential function but still the exponential function will exceeds the quadratic function after x = 15.664 as shown in the graph below.

Therefore, we can conclude that the given statement is correct.
