1) Since the value in the bracket is below 1, that indicates it is a decay exponential equation if it is greater than one, it is a growth equation

Therefore option b is correct.

2) Also, since the value in the bracket is 0.73 this implies the automobile that depreciates 27% per year over the course of t years.

Therefore option d is also correct.
