Problem 22

Note that proof of this question requires knowledge of limits.
Let f(x) be a continuous function.
It is given that f(0) > 0
Can you find a function f(x) such that f(x+y) = f(x)f(y)
(Note that x and y are just inputs into f(x). i.e: if f(x) = 2x, f(x+y) = 2x \cdot 2y)

Can you find the general solution to f(x)?
[Hint: use limits and f(0)]
