fill in the blanks to explain how linear functions grow and how exponential functions grow

Question

linear functions have a ___ exponential rate of change. exponential growth functions ___ ____ at first than ____ exponential decay functions ____ ____ at first and then ____

Answer 1

Linear functions have a constant rate of change. Exponential growth functions grow slowly at first then increase rapidly. Exponential decay functions decrease slowly at first and then drop quickly.
