7 Definition of Exponential Function Definition of Exponential Function The exponential function f with base a is denoted by f (x) = a x where a > 0, a 1, and x is any real number. Accelerated Pre-Calculus Exponential Functions and Their Graphs Mr. Niedert 4 / 17

8 Definition of Exponential Function Definition of Exponential Function The exponential function f with base a is denoted by f (x) = a x where a > 0, a 1, and x is any real number. The base a = 1 is excluded because it yields f (x) = 1 x = 1. This is actually a constant function, since it is always equal to 1, so it is not an exponential function.

13 One-to-One Property From the previous investigation, we can determine that the graph of an exponential function is either always increasing or always decreasing. Accelerated Pre-Calculus Exponential Functions and Their Graphs Mr. Niedert 7 / 17

14 One-to-One Property From the previous investigation, we can determine that the graph of an exponential function is either always increasing or always decreasing. As a result, the graph passes the Horizontal Line Test, meaning that the functions are always one-to-one. Accelerated Pre-Calculus Exponential Functions and Their Graphs Mr. Niedert 7 / 17

28 Radioactive Decay Practice In 1986, a nuclear reactor accident occurred in Chernobyl in what was then the Soviet Union. The explosion spread highly toxic radioactive chemicals, such as plutonium, over hundreds of square miles, and the government evacuated the city and the surrounding area. To see why the city is now uninhabited, consider the model P = 10 ( ) t 1 24,100 2 which represents the amount of plutonium P that remains (from an initial amount of 10 pounds) after t years. Sketch the graph of this function over the interval from t = 0 to t = 10,000, where t = 0 represents How much of the 10 pounds will remain in the year 2010? How much of the 10 pounds will remain after 100,000 years? Accelerated Pre-Calculus Exponential Functions and Their Graphs Mr. Niedert 16 / 17
