7-1 Exponential Functions, Growth, and Decay
Moore’s law, a rule used in the computer industry, states that the number of transistors per integrated circuit (the processing power) doubles every year. Beginning in the early days of integrated circuits, the growth in capacity may be approximated by this table.

7-1 Exponential Functions, Growth, and Decay
Growth that doubles every year can be modeled by using a function with a variable as an exponent. This function is known as an exponential function. The parent exponential function is f(x) = bx, where the base b is a constant and the exponent x is the independent variable.

The graph of the parent function f(x) = 2x is shown. The domain is all real numbers and the range is {y|y > 0}.
Holt McDougal Algebra 2
7-1 Exponential Functions, Growth, and Decay
Notice as the x-values decrease, the graph of the function gets closer and closer to the x-axis. The function never reaches the x-axis because the value of 2x cannot be zero. In this case, the x-axis is an asymptote. An asymptote is a line that a graphed function approaches as the value of x gets very large or very small.

A function of the form f(x) = abx, with a > 0 and b > 1, is an exponential growth function, which increases as x increases. When 0 < b < 1, the function is called an exponential decay function, which decreases as x increases.

Negative exponents indicate a reciprocal. For example:
Remember!
In the function y = bx, y is a function of x because the value of y depends on the value of x.
Remember!

Helpful Hint

7-1 Exponential Functions, Growth, and Decay
You can model growth or decay by a constant percent increase or decrease with the following formula:
In the formula, the base of the exponential expression, 1 + r, is called the growth factor. Similarly, 1 – r is the decay factor.

Clara invests $5000 in an account that pays 6.25% interest per year. After how many years will her investment be worth $10,000?
Example 2: Economics Application
The function value is approximately 10,000 when t ≈ 11.43 The investment will be worth $10,000 about 11.43 years after it was purchased.

A common application of exponential growth is compound interest. Recall that simple interest is earned or paid only on the principal. Compound interest is interest earned or paid on both the principal and previously earned interest.

For compound interest
• annually means “once per year” (n = 1).
• quarterly means “4 times per year” (n =4).
• monthly means “12 times per year” (n = 12)
•daily means “365 times per year” (m=365)
