The function "f(x) = 6x - 2" appears three times in the given options, so it is like the others in terms of the rate of change.
The sequence "2, 8, 12, 20, 26" has a common difference of 6 between each term.
The sequence "an = -5 + 6(n - 1)" also has a common difference of 6 between each term.
Therefore, the sequence "2, 8, 12, 20, 26" is unlike the others with respect to the rate of change (common difference).
Which of the following is UNLIKE the others with respect to the rate of change (common difference)?

f(x) = 6x − 2
f(x) = 6x − 2
f(x) = 6x − 2
2, 8, 12, 20, 26
2, 8, 12, 20, 26
2, 8, 12, 20, 26
an = −5 + 6(n − 1)
an = −5 + 6(n − 1)
