The first and fourth are exponential. The second is quadratic due to gravitational acceleration.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is an equation that has only one answer for y for every x. An example of linear function is : $y=2x+5$

This function assigns exactly one output to each input value.

So, out of given options , option C is correct answer. A writer has a 500 page novel to write and each week, she completes eight pages.  

Option A is exponential function as the formulas for interests have exponent powers for number of years.

Option B is a quadratic equation in the form of $ax^{2} +bx+c$

Option D is exponential function. As bacteria grow on exponential basis.
