Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential function is given by general form [tex]y=ab^x[/tex]
Where a and b are constants.
say a=1 and b=2 then we can write function as :
[tex]y=1*2^x[/tex]
or [tex]y=2^x[/tex]
To graph this or any exponential function, we just need to find some points then join them by a curved line.
Like plug x=0, 1, 2,... into above function and find points:
plug x=1
[tex]y=2^x=2^1=2[/tex]
Hence point is (1,2)
Find more points similarly then graph them to get the graph as shown below:
