For the following exercises, determine whether the equation represents exponential growth, exponential decay, or neither....

Remember the formula for an exponential function is represented by ${\displaystyle f\left(x\right)=a{b}^x}$ where a is the initial value and @ is the growth rate.
If the base, b > 1, then it shows exponential growth. If it is 0 <b <1, then it shows exponential decay.
Note that the base is an independent variable in the function. Therefore, this equation neither represents exponential growth nor exponential decay.
