Question

Does the function model exponential growth or decay f(x)=3*(7/4)^x

Answer 1

Exponential functions are patterns that get continuously multiplied by some number. It's exponential growth when the base of our exponential is bigger than 1, which means those numbers get bigger. It's exponential decay when the base of our exponential is in between 1 and 0 and those numbers get smaller.

Answer 2

It models exponential growth.

Explanation:

7/4 > 1, so f(x) grows at an exponential rate as x increases.

A graph of f(x) is attached below, showing the exponential growth.
