Reccal:

1) In a linear function, consecutive inputs yield outputs that have a constant rate of cange.

2) In an exponential function, consecutive inputs yield outputs that have a constant ratio.

Check if the given function is linear by getting the difference between consecutive outputs:

52=3

85=3

118=3

1411=3

There is a common reate of change so the function is linear.

A linear function whose average rate of change is nonzero will never be an exponential function.
