Hi! :) What is the number in the parenthesis?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If the number in the parenthesis is between 0 and 1, then that is a decay.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

look at the base of the exponent and apply the rule base > 1 growth occurs base < 1 decay occurs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And if it is greater than 1, then that's a growth. :)
