Please help, very confused.

Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll refer to the functions by number, starting at the left.
1. This is a recursively-defined function with each term differing from the one before by a constant. A constant difference between terms means the function is a linear function.
__
2. This function is defined by an equation that has the variable in the exponent. That makes it an exponential function.
__
3. The differences of adjacent Values are not constant, nor do adjacent Values have a common ratio. This function is neither linear nor exponential. (Second differences are constant, so it is a quadratic function.)
__
4. Adjacent values have a common ratio: 9/6 = 13.5/9 = 1.5. That means this function is an exponential function.
