Rational and Exponential Functions

Growth factor of an exponential function: growth factor is greater than 1
Exponential growth function: the quantity increases, slowly at first, and then very rapidly. The rate of change increases over time. The rate of growth becomes faster as time passes.
Rational function: is any function which can be defined by a rational fraction
Horizontal & Vertical Asymptotes of Rational Functions: Vertical asymptotes are vertical lines which correspond to the zeroes of the denominator of a rational function.
Initial amount for an exponential function: starting amount before the rate
Exponential decay function: the quantity decreases very rapidly at first, and then more slowly. The rate of change decreases over time.
Decay factor of an exponential function: the decay factor is 0 < b < 1
Horizontal Asymptotes of Exponential Functions
End behavior of a graph with asymptotes: for numerically large values of x, we can sometimes model the behavior of a complicated function by a simpler one that acts virtually in the same way
Y-intercept of an exponential function
Exponential function: f (x) = abx
Compound Interest Formula: A=P(1+r/n)nt
Continuous Compounding: the process of earning interest on top of interest. The interest is earned constantly, and immediately begins earning interest on itself.
