Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Given :

X : -4 -1 2 4 5

Y : 16 2 0.25 0.0625 0.03125

The graph is attached which shows it is exponential.

There is a decrease rate as shown

therefore, there is a constant rate of decay or decrease

Option B is correct i.e. it is exponential, there is a constant rate of decay or decrease.
