Answer:

Option: B is the correct answer.

B. Exponential decay

Explanation:

Clearly from the graph we could observe that the graph is a decreasing function since with the increasing value of " x " the value of y is decreasing.

Hence, option: C and option: D are discarded.

Also the graph is not an linear decreasing graph.

Since the curve is not a straight line.

  • Now we know that a exponential decay function is in general represented by the expression:


f(x)=ab^x

where 0<b<1

such that the curve decreases gradually with the increasing value of x.

Hence, the function that is represented by the graph is:

Exponential decay function
