State whether the following equation represents a linear, quadratic or exponential function. y=x^0.2 I think Exponential but there is a multiple choice answer that says "none of these" so I am not %100 sure.
-----------------
y=x^0.2
linear: no, not 1st degree
quadratic: no, not 2nd degree
exponential: no, the variable is not in the exponent
none of these: yes
