Answer:

Explanation:

f(x)=2x+1 is a linear function, and not a exponential function.

This is because exponential functions, usually have exponents (exponential). It would look more like a roller coaster. It's either going up, or down.

Also, view attached graph for clarification.

Hope this helps!
