That all depends on the problem given!
A general form of the exponential growth/decay is:
y = ab^x.
- If we have an exponential growth, b = 1 + r
- Otherwise, b = 1 - r.
In the second version, the exponential growth is y = Ae^(kt) while the exponential decay is y = Ae^(-kt)

Does Exponential decay occurs if the base of an exponential function is a positive integer?
Yes.
Exponential decay equation?
A = A0 e-Bt
What is the relationship between exponential and logarithmic functions?
Exponential and logarithmic functions are inverses of each other.
How do you change an exponential functions to a logarithmic function?
If y is an exponential function of x then x is a logarithmic function of y - so to change from an exponential function to a logarithmic function, change the subject of the function from one variable to the other.
What is the exponential form of 9 x 9 x 9?
You would write it as 93
What is the difference between exponential growth and decay?
Exponential growth is when the amount of something is increasing, and exponential decay is when the amount of something is decreasing.
How do you tell if its exponential growth or decay?
Exponential growth has a growth/decay factor (or percentage decimal) greater than 1. Decay has a decay factor less than 1.
Categorize the graph as linear increasing linear decreasing exponential growth or exponential decay.?
Exponential Decay. hope this will help :)
What is the difference exponential growth and decay?
They are incredibly different acceleration patterns. Exponential growth is unbounded, whereas exponential decay is bounded so as to form a "dynamic equilibrium." This is why exponential decay is so typical of natural processes. To see work I have done in explaining exponential decay, go to the page included in the related links.
Who invented exponentail growth and exponential decay?
Reverend Thomas Malthus developed the concept of Exponential Growth (another name for this is Malthusian growth model.) However the mathematical Exponent function was already know, but not applied to population growth and growth constraints. Exponential Decay is a natural extension of Exponential Growth
How are the graphs of exponential growth and exponential decay functions different?
Exponential growth goes infinitely up. Exponential decay goes infinitely over always getting closer to the x axis but never reaching it. ADDED: An exponential decay trace's flat-looking region has its own special name: an "asymptote".
Is the equation P500(1.03) with an exponent of n a model of Growth or Exponential Decay?
It can be growth or decay - it depends on whether n is positive (growth) or negative (decay).
What is independent variable in exponential growth and decay problems?
Time!
An exponential growth function represents a quantity that has a constant halving time?
That would be an exponential decay curve or negative growth curve.
Do all exponential functions show growth over time?
If the exponent has the variable of time in it, then it will be either exponential growth (such as compound interest for example), or exponential decay (such as radioactive materials, or a capacitor discharging). If the time constant (coefficient of the time variable) is positive then it is growth, if the time constant is negative, then it is decay.
Factor of 4/7^x?

What is the exponential formula for population growth?
exponential decay formula is y=A x Bx
