Explanation:

Step1: Recall the general form of exponential functions

The general form of an exponential function is \(y = a\cdot b^{x}\), where \(a
eq0\), \(b > 0\) and \(b
eq1\). If \(b>1\), it is an exponential growth function; if \(0 < b<1\), it is an exponential decay function.

Step2: Analyze the given function \(y = 6(1)^{x}\)

Since \(b = 1\), and for any real - number \(x\), \(1^{x}=1\). So \(y=6\times1 = 6\), which is a constant function.

Answer:

Neither
