Exponential function graphAnalyzing the features of exponential graphs through the example of y=5ˣ.

Graphs of exponential functions (old example)Sal matches the following four functions to their appropriate graphs: y=2^x, y=-3^x, y=2-(1/3)^x, y=(1/2)^x-2.

Transforming exponential graphsGiven the graph of y=2ˣ, Sal graphs y=2⁻ˣ-5, which is a horizontal reflection and shift of y=2ˣ.

Graphing exponential functionsSal graphs y=-2*3ˣ+5 using our interactive graphing widget.

Transforming exponential graphs (example 2)Given the graph of y=2ˣ, Sal graphs y=(-1)2ˣ⁺³+4, which is a vertical reflection and a shift of y=2ˣ.
