How to sketch exponential graphs and reciprocal graphs?
Exponential Functions - Introduction
y = ax, where a > 0 Sketching exponential graphs (using reflections)
Examples:
y = e-x
y = -ex Sketching exponential graphs (using translations)
Examples:
y = ex + 2
y = ex - 1
y = ex - 2
y = ex + 1 Sketching exponential graphs (using stretches)
Examples:
y = e2x
