<span>(5-^1) (5-^3)
= 5^[(-1) + (-3)]
= 5^-4
= 1/5^4
= 1/625

Take into account that x represents the number of decades after 1950. Moreover, consider that -0.5x is a decrease in the values of y, each decade.
Then, you can conclude that each decade, that is, every 10 years, the shoreline reduces 0.5 feet.
Hnece, you have:
The shoreline is reduced by 0.5 foot every 10 years
