charting y=e^x

[jason]

How can I make a chart of y=e^x and have the x axis be a
specific range?

Jason -

Put your desired X values in A2:A10 (or more if you need more points).
In B2 enter this formula

=EXP(A2)

Fill this formula down to B10 (or as far as you have X values in column
A). An easy way to do this is to double click on the tiny black square
at the bottom right of cell B2.

Now make an XY Scatter chart of A2:B10, and scale your axes appropriately.

Alternate solution: use the PLOT manager from Tushar Mehta
