Describe and correct the error in determining which type of function the table represents.

"Consecutive y-values change by multiplying previous value by a constant amount. So, the table represents an exponential function."

Step-by-step explanation:

In reality, the table represents an exponential function instead of a linear function, since values on domain change arithmetically at constant rate, whereas values on range change geometrically at constant rate.

Correct phrase may be: "Consecutive y-values change by multiplying previous value by a constant amount. So, the table represents an exponential function."
