What I don't understand is why the graph is described as 'exponential'. This is probably due to my lack of mathematical understanding. In my mind you can have exponential growth and exponential decay, but what your and Eoin's answers suggest to me is that you can have some other kind of relationship which while still exponential isn't a decay or growth graph? If that is the case, how would you describe this graphical relationship? | |
