\"\" Exponential growth and Decay model:

\

If \"\" is a differentiable function of \"\" such that \"\" and \"\" for some constant \"\", then \"\".

\

\"\" is the initial value of \"\" and \"\" is the propotional constant. Exponential growth occurs when \"\", and exponential decay occurs when \"\".
