Answer:
- a: initial value above c
- b: growth/decay factor
- c: horizontal asymptote
Explanation:
The value c represents the horizontal asymptote.
The value "a" is the amount above the horizontal asymptote at x=0.
__
The value b is the growth factor, the amount that the difference from c is multiplied by when x increases by 1.
If b > 1, the function is a growth function and will increase in magnitude to the right.
If b < 1, the function is a decay function and will approach the horizontal asymptote to the right.
