Answer:
we CANNOT DIVIDE 3 with 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here,as given in the question:
Starting value = 6
Constant ratio = 1/3
Now, exponential function is obtained by the product of starting value and the constant ratio repeatedly.
⇒ f(x) = (Starting value) x (ratio)... x times
Now, we CANNOT DIVIDE 3 with 6 as it is in the power of x.
Hence,
and 
Answer:
Linear. y = x also equals y = 1x, and you can put a line on a graph using this equation, hence the name linear.
