Definition :
\The function defined by
is called as the natural exponential function.
It is denoted by
.
Properties of Natural exponential function :
\The exponential function
is a continous function with domain
and range
.
Therefore
for all values of
.
Also
\
The graph crosses the
axis at
.
When
the value increases,When
the graph decreases.
Domain of
is all real numbers and range is all positive real numbers(Never zero).
Graph
passes the vertical line test.
Graph
passes the horizantal line test-its inverse is also a function.
Graph
is asymptotic to the
-axis - gets very, very close to the
-axis but does not touch it or cross it.
is continous, increasing, one-to-one and concave upwards on its entire domain.
Properties of Natural exponential function is described.
