Answer 1

The answer was B if anyone was wondering 

Answer 2

Answer:

Option B - $y=99.07\times 0.68^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The data set of the equation.

To find : What is the exponential regression equation for the data set?

Solution :

Using regression calculator we get an exponential regression equation for the data set above is $y=99.07\times 0.68^x$

As exponential function is in the form $y=ab^x$

Where, a is the initial value, a=99.07

and b is the rate factor, b=0.68

Refer the attached figure for the regression calculations.

Therefore, Option B is correct.
