Quick Check Solutions Exponential Functions Target C
a) Linear Function
If we look at the the first table, we can notice that we are adding the same constant value to get to the next y-value. This function has a constant slope therefore it is linear.

b) Exponential Function
If we look at this table, we see that in order to get to the next y-value we are multiplying by 4 each time.
If we look at this table, we see that in order to get to the next y-value we are multiplying by 4 each time.
In order to find the growth rate, we divide one y-value by the previous y-value; in this case 8 divided by 2. The growth rate is 4.
