In the notation for powers, e.g. Ab, A is the base (the number which is multiplied by itself) and b is the exponent (the number of times we mutiply it). An Exponent is how many times you get a certain Prime number in a factor tree.
I don''t remember what a base is.

How can you tell if an exponential function is exponential growth or decay by looking at its base?
It is not enough to look at the base. This is because a^x is the same as (1/a)^-x : the key is therefore a combination of the base and the sign of the exponent.0 < base < 1, exponent < 0 : growth0 < base < 1, exponent > 0 : decaybase > 1, exponent < 0 : decaybase > 1, exponent > 0 : growth.
