Question

Identify the exponent in the exponential function f(x) = 5x. 5x5x5 + x

Answer 1

Given

The exponential function,

$f(x)=5^x$

To find:

The exponent in the exponential function.

Explanation:

It is given that,

$f(x)=5^x$

That implies,

Since Exponential functions have the form f(x) = bx, where b > 0 and b ≠ 1. Also in an exponential expression, b is called the base and x is called the exponent.

Hence, the exponent in the given exponential function is x.
