For this case we have an equation of the form:
 y = A * (b) ^ t
 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: decrease factor
 t: time
 Substituting values:
 y = 30 * (b) ^ t
 To calculate t we use a point in the table.
 We have:
 (t, y) = (1, 28.5)
 Substituting:
 28.5 = 30 * (b) ^ 1
 b = 28.5 / 30
 b = 0.95
 Answer:
 
a. Decay factor is 0.95

Answer:

\boxed{\sf{4}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a slope form.

<u>Slope:</u>

\sf{\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{rise}{run}  }

y₂ = (17)

y₁ = (1)

x₂ = (2)

x₁ = (-2)

Then, rewrite the problem.

Solve.

\sf{\dfrac{17-1}{2-(-2)}=\dfrac{16}{4}=\dfrac{16\div4}{4\div4}=\dfrac{4}{1}=\boxed{\sf{4}    }

Therefore, the slope is 4, which is our answer.

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.
