... an exponential function can never have a negative value, nor can it ever be exactly equal to zero. In the graph on the left, the functions y = 2x and y = 2-x are compared. The function, y = 2x, increases gradually from near zero (when x is large and negative) to the value 1 (when x = 0) and then in ...
