Graph Exponential Functions- Using a table -6 -5 -4.5 -4.25 -4.125
Asymptote- A line that a curve gets infinitely close to, but never touches -6 -5 y=-4 -4.5 -4.25 -4.125
Transformations- -Exponential Functions a vertically stretches or shrinks the graph of y = bx. If there is not a number where a is, it is either 1 or -1
Transformations- -Exponential Functions b is always the number actually touching the exponent. b is nevernegative or 0 • .
Transformations- -Exponential Functions • h translates (moves) the graph horizontally. • his always the number that is part of the exponent, and is always opposite of its appearance. If there’s not a number there, h is 0.
Transformations- -Exponential Functions k translates (moves) the graph vertically. kis always the number added at the end of the equation. If there’s not a number there, k is 0. Because the value of k shifts the entire graph vertically, the graph’s asymptoteis always y = k.
Increasing/Decreasing The signof a (+ or –) and the size of b (b > 1 or 0 < b < 1) determine where and if the graph is increasing or decreasing. The following chart defines this:
Finding points You can use these formulas for finding two specific points in every exponential equation using the values of a, b, h, and k. (h, a + k) and (h + 1, ab + k). These formulas usually lead to nice ‘plottable’ (often whole) numbers.
SAMPLE PROBLEM: Step 1: Compare the exponential equation to the generic form and identify a, b, h, and k: y = abx – h + k y = 2x – 2 + 3 h = 2 k = 3 a = 1 b = 2 Since there’s not a number before the ‘b’ Since it was -2, it’s +2
SAMPLE PROBLEM: a = 1, b = 2, h = 2, and k = 3. Step 2: Substitute into the point formulas, point #1 is (h, a+k) point #2 is (h+1, ab+k) (2, 1+3) or (2, 4) (2+1, 1(2)+3) or (3,5)
SAMPLE PROBLEM: Step 3: a = 1, b = 2, h = 2, and k = 3.
Step 3: Graph: Draw and label the asymptote(dotted line “barrier”) Plot and label the two points Neatly draw the smooth exponential curve through the two points, making sure it approaches, but never touches, the asymptote Label the curve.
