How does the graph of an exponential function differ from the graph of a linear function and how is the rate of change different?
The graph of a linear function is a line with a constant slope. The graph of an exponential function is a curve with a non-constant slope. The slope of a given curve at a specified point is the derivative evaluated at that point.
What is the difference between linear and exponential function?
The linear function increases by the same number each step. The exponential function increases more each step. (1,1),(2,2),(3,3) etc (1,1).(2,4),(3,9),(4,16), etc see how the second one increases a lot?
What is the purpose of semi logarithm?
The y-axis on a semi logarithmic chart is exponential. This way, when an exponential function is depicted in the chart, it will evolve as a linear function. You often do this to proove that the function is exponential and/or as a tool to help you find the equation for the function. For more see: http://www.answers.com/topic/semi-logarithmic-plot
Is y equals 102x exponential?
No, the equation y = 102x is not exponential. An exponential function is of the form y = a * b^x, where a and b are constants. In this case, the equation y = 102x is a linear function, as it represents a straight line with a slope of 102 and no exponential growth or decay.
How do you determine if a function is linear?
A function is linear if it is of the form f(x) = mx + c where m and c are constants and a is not zero.The function implies that an increase of one unit in the input variable, x, always results in an increase of m units in the output.
