Exponential function - A function that raises a given base (positive constant) to successive powers of x (variable). An example would be f(x)=3^x. A graph of this is shown in the first attachment.

All exponential functions have a domain of all real numbers, and a range of f(x)>0. The y-intercept is always 1, because any number raised to a power of 0 is 1 (i.e. c^0=1 for all c, ...
