Expert Solution
Step 1

Introduction :-

The curve of an exponential function is formed by a pattern of data that exhibits larger rises with the passage of time.

For example, imagine a mouse population grows by a factor of two every year, starting with 2 in the first year, then 4 in the second, 8 in the third, 16 in the fourth, and so on. In this example, the population is increasing by a factor of two every year. If mice gave birth to four pups instead, there would be four, then 16, then 64, then 25 6.
