Properties of Exponential Decay Graphs

A quality assurance technician is graphing the degradation rates of two materials using the models f(x)=(12)xf(x) = \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^x and g(x)=(13)xg(x) = \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^x. When plotted on the same coordinate system, what specific coordinate point represents their shared yy-intercept, and what is the general direction of these curves as you move from left to right?
