In an exponential function of the form f(x) = a ⋅ b^x:

If b > 1, the function models exponential growth, where the output increases rapidly as x increases.

If 0 < b < 1, the function models exponential decay, where the output decreases as x increases.

Analyzing the Options:

A) Population growth in a healthy ecosystem: This typically involves exponential growth (e.g., b > 1) as populations tend to increase over time if resources are available.

B) Radioactive decay of a substance: This process is characterized by a decrease in the quantity of radioactive material over time. The decay can ...
