\"\"

\

Definition :

\

The function defined by \"\" is called as the natural exponential function.

\

It is denoted by \"\".

\

Properties of Natural exponential function :

\

The exponential function \"\" is a continous function with domain \"\" and range \"\" .

\

Therefore \"\" for all values of \"\".

\

Also

\

\"\"

\

The graph crosses the \"\" axis at \"\".

\

When \"\" the value increases,When \"\" the graph decreases.

\

Domain of \"\" is all real numbers and range is all positive real numbers(Never zero).

\

Graph \"\" passes the vertical line test.

\

Graph \"\" passes the horizantal line test-its inverse is also a function.

\

Graph \"\" is asymptotic to the \"\"-axis - gets very, very close to the \"\"-axis but does not touch it or cross it.

\

\"\" is continous, increasing, one-to-one and concave upwards on its entire domain.

\
