100 points if correct answer!

how can you determine if an exponential equation represents exponential growth

a. the initial value is negative

b. the base, b, is 0
c. the base is a negative number

d. the base is a positive number greater than 1

D. The base is a positive number greater than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for exponential growth and decay is

y =a b^x

where a is the initial value

b = 1 + the growth (or decay rate)

b will be greater than 1 if we have growth and between 0 and 1 if we are decaying

answer is 8 r5
