2. negative b
- increases the steepness of the line (gradient)
- reflection in the x axis
What happens with …..
1. an increase in a
2. negative a
- an increase in y intrcept
- negative y intercept (a reflection in the x axis)
Relationship between a reciprocal base
what is the difference between exponetial growth curve and decay curve?
- growth: population, disease
- decay:
Asymptotes change

What is
logs are NOT distributive
Use the log laws!
What are the 3 different types of logs?
What is linearisation and why is it done to exponentials?
Converting a function into straight line form: it becomes easier to collect information on them. This is done by Logs
Linearise the equation
