a) Growth: f(x) because it is getting larger exponentially due to an integer greater than 1 being raised to an exponent.
b) Decay: g(x) because it is getting smaller exponentially due to an integer less than 1 being raised to an exponent.
c) Have the lead exponent being not equal to 1.
d) Whether or not the number being raised to the exponent is greater than or less than 1.
e) f(x) because it is an exponential growth function, which none of the others are.
