Answer:

D

Explanation:

Exponential equation takes the form
y=a*b^x where

  1. a is the initial value ( a ≠ 0), and
  2. b is the base ( b ≠ 1)

The equation given in the problem can be written as
y=-4.8*4^x, so it is an exponential equation, where a = -4.8 and b = 4.

Thus we can say that the initial value = -4.8 and the base is 4

The correct answer is D
