In this exercise we will use the knowledge of equation of the line plus the knowledge of logarithm, like this:
First, we have the following values informed, such as:
Knowing that the formula for the equation of the line is given by:
The logarithm form will be:

The change represents decay and the percentage decrease is 2.9%
<h3>Exponential function</h3>
The standard exponential function is expressed as y = ab^x
where:
a is the initial
b is the rate
If the value of b is less than 1 hence the function is decay and if greater than 1, the function is growth
GIven the expoenential function y=100(0.971)^x
Since the value of b = 0.971 < 1, hence the function is a decay.
The percentage decrease = 1 - 0.971 = 2.9%
Hence the percentage decrease is 2.9%

Step-by-step explanation:
Vicky Bought:
Strawberries $3.50
Carrots $2.25
Flowers $9.95
Subtotal $3.50 + $2.25 + $9.95
= $15.70
5% Sales Tax (5% of Subtotal) = 5/100 x $15.70
= $0.785 (will not round off here as it is not the final answer.)
Total = Subtotal + 5% Sales Tax
= $15.70 + $0.785
= $16.485
= $16.49 (rounded off to nearest cent)
The answer is (2,1). 2*2=4 and 9*1=9. 9+4=13
