Based on the number of years, and the number of nesting sites, the exponential function that best models the data is B. n(x) = 46,797(0.93)ˣ.
<h3>What function best models the data?</h3>You can find the correct function by testing out the options with the given x value to see if it correctly predicts the number of nesting sites.
Function n(x) = 25,956.80(1.08)ˣ
Assuming x is 3:
= 25,956.80(1.08)³
= 32,698 sites
This function does not predict the correct number of sites which is 40,513.
Function n(x) = 46,797(0.93)ˣ
Assuming x is 3:
= 46,797(0.93)³
= 37,438 sites
This is closer to the predicted number of 40,513 sites with some discrepancy.
In conclusion, option B is correct.
