Exponential Growth
Quiz
Powers and Roots
Summary
The content delves into the patterns of exponential growth, focusing on how powers change with increasing exponents across different types of numerical bases.
- Exponential growth varies significantly with the base value; a base greater than one grows rapidly with increasing powers.
- A positive base less than one results in decreasing values as the exponent rises, showcasing a pattern of rapid diminishment.
- Negative bases less than -1 exhibit an alternating pattern of increasing absolute values, flipping between positive and negative.
- Negative fractions (bases between -1 and 0) decrease towards zero, alternating between positive and negative values.
- The impact of increasing exponents on the power's size is contingent on the base's nature, influencing the answer to comparative questions about powers.
