I'm in 8th grade, and I'm not entirely sure what an exponential relationship is. In class, we're doing exponential growth and decay, so we have to identify if a specific problem describes an exponential relationship.

Could you give me an example with this problem?:

1a. y = 100 * 3^x

So how can you identify an exponential relationship? Does it mean if the problem includes exponents?

Thanks!

If the independent variable (x, in this case) appears as an exponent, then the relationship is exponential.

The following is an exponential relationship:
y = 3 * 6^(2*x)

The following is NOT an exponential relationship:
y = 3 * (2*x)^6

The reason the second example is not exponential is that the dependent variable (x) does not appear AS an exponent itself.
