Answer: Â Exponential function
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear function is the form[tex]f(x)=mx+c[/tex] , where m is the constant rate of change of y with respect to x and c is the y-intercept.
An exponential growth function is in the form [tex]f(x)=A(1+r)^x[/tex], where r is the rate of growth (generally in percent) and A is initial value.
If the population of a certain type of seahorse grew by 13% from year to year, then the rate of growth is 13% .
Hence it is an exponential equation.
