If I take my exponential growth function above and divide both sides by N 0, then take the natural log (ln) of both sides, I get this equivalent expression: Illustration: Rhett Allain.

Exponential growth is a pattern of data that shows greater increases with passing time, creating the curve of an exponential function. The formula for exponential growth is V = S x (1+R) T, where ...
