5. On your graphing paper, plot the pairs of numbers (the number of folds,
the no. of pieces of paper) you obtained from the table. Connect them
with smooth curve. This is the graph of the function.
6. Ask two pairs to present their output and graph it in the graphing board.
The teacher discusses the previous activity that Exponential functions are functions
D. Discussing new in which the variable appears in the exponent. The exponential function with base
concepts and practicing a is defined for all real numbers x by f(x) = ax, where a > 0 and a ≠ 1.
new skills #1 The teacher adds that If the form ax is used, a represents the base and x is the
(5 minutes) exponent. Then in the previous activity, 2 would be the base and the number of
folds is represented by x.
E. Discussing new The teacher explains the graphs of the functions f(x) = a x, where a > 1 and f(x) = a x,
concepts and practicing where 0 < a < 1 The teacher expounds the properties of exponential functions.

With the same partner from the previous activity, the teacher lets the learners
graph each group of functions in one coordinate plane. Construct first a table of
values of each function and answer the following questions after:
Expected Answers:
1. Yes
2. Yes – (0,1)
3. The graph becomes steeper.

H. Making generalizations The teacher summarizes on graphing exponential functions through the following
and abstractions about guide questions:
the lesson 1. What did you observe of the values of the function f(x) = f(x) = a x, where a > 0
(10 minutes) and a ≠ 1 and its graph?
2. What did you observe of the values of the function f(x) = f(x) = a x where 0 < a < 1
and its graph?
3. What properties can you observe from the graph of the function f(x) = a x, where
a > 1 and f(x) = ax, where 0 < a < 1?
Expected Response:
1. As x increases, the function attains only positive y-values. And when x decreases
without bound, the function approaches 0.
2. As x decreases, the function attains only positive y-values. And when x increases,
the function approaches zero.
