If the third/fourth option is meant to be y = 5^x + 2, then that function has range (2, ∞). Reason: for a>1, a^x > 0 for all x, so 5^x + 2 > 2 and as x → -∞ the expression approaches 2, while as x → ∞ it → ∞.

If the options are exactly as written (y = 2x, y = 2(5x) = 10x, y = 5x + 2), then none of those have range (2, ∞) because any nonzero-slope linear function has range (-∞, ∞).
