ANSWER
if y is positive, then as x increases, y will also increase
if y is negative, then, as x increases, y will tend to zero
STEP-BY-STEP FUNCTION
The general term of an exponential function is given as
[tex]f(x)=a(b)^x[/tex]
Where b is the common ratio
Between 0 to 1, it is assumed that the common ratio will be in fraction
i.e., 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, etc
if x is negative, then the value of y will be decreased, and if x is positive the value of y will be increased as well. Therefore, the value of y will increase as x increases
