1. Exponential Functions
Sign In
Make a table to find ordered pairs. Then, plot and connect the points with a smooth curve.
Graph:
Domain: All real numbers
Range: y>0
To graph the given exponential function, we will first make a table of values.
x | 4^(x+3) | f(x)=4^(x+3) |
---|---|---|
- 5 | 4^(- 5+3) | 0.0625 |
- 3 | 4^(- 3+3) | 1 |
- 2 | 4^(- 2+3) | 4 |
- 1 | 4^(- 1+3) | 16 |
Let's now plot and connect the points ( - 5, 0.0625), ( - 3, 1), ( - 2, 4), and ( - 1, 16) with a smooth curve.
We can see in the graph that the range is all real numbers greater than zero. The domain of exponential functions is all real numbers. Domain:& All real numbers Range:& y>0
