Set 10: Exponential Functions (Intermediate)

Choice B is correct. Choice B is the correct answer. Analyze the features of the function. 1. Initial Value: $a=2$, so y-intercept is 2. 2. Growth/Decay: $b=3 > 1$, so it is increasing (growth). 3. Shape: Exponential growth curves up rapidly. Strategic Tip: Growth curves go up to the right. Decay curves go down to the right. Choice A is incorrect because it is not linear. Choice C is incorrect because it represents decay. Choice D is incorrect because the y-intercept is 2, not 3.
