Without graphing, determine whether the function y=(5.2)^x represents exponential growth or exponential decay.

We know that ,an exponential function growth and decay we decid by the value of “b”  into the equation y=a(b)^x

Where “b” can be a positive number or can be negetive number 

When “b” is greater than 1 then an exponential function is Known exponential growth and if “b” is less than 1then is an exponential decay.

By the given function 

Y=(5.2)^x  ,where a=1 and b=5.2 witch is greater than 1 so function is an exponential growth function.
