The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

y=1500(0.937)^t

Explanation:

An exponential function is of the form

y=a\times b^x, where a is the initial population, b is 1 plus the amount of yearly change, and x is the number of years.

For our problem, a, the initial population, is 1500.

The yearly change is 6.3%; 6.3% = 6.3/100 = 0.063.  Since it is decreasing, this is negative; 1+(-0.063) = 0.937.

We use t as the number of years.

This gives us

y=1500(0.937)^t

The only thing you need to do is divide 56 by -7. You know the d must be a negative number because negative x negative= positive. So 56 / -7 is -8.

It appears that none of your option choices are correct,, are you sure you copied them right ? I will show you how to solve this and how I got my answer.
The first step for solving this is to add the numbers in the parenthesis.
3 × 11 × 2 - 14 ÷ 7
Divide -14 by 7.
3 × 11 × 2 - 2
Divide the first 3 numbers together.
66 - 2
Subtract the numbers together to get your final answer.
64
