increasing/decreasing x-intervals of 2^x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im desperate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

always increasing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that the answer then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because it is asking for intervals so do you have to have a number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well (-inf,inf)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thank you so much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but do you have to say for example it is increasing by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no. The function increases at a different rate. In fact, it increase faster and faster

OpenStudy (amoodarya):

|dw:1388808125468:dw|create a table of x,y plot the function you will see it is increasing all the time so another way to answer is by definition a>b -->f(a)>f(b) a>b -->2^a>2^b so increases all the time 3rd way to answer is derivation (if you know derivation ) y'=2^x * ln(2) >0 so increases for all the x
