The average low temperature for January was 40 °F - 100%.
The average low in February was x °F - 27% lower, that is 100%-27%=73%.
Write a proportion:

Answer: the average low in February was 29.2 °F.
General Idea:
The exponential function will be of the form
.
When b>1, the function indicates the exponential growth.
When 0<b<1, the function indicates the exponential decay.
Applying the concept:
We are given the graph of
, here b = 2.
The question ask the characteristic of the function when b is in the interval
. The attached figure shows few graphs of exponential function whose b value is less than 2 and greater than 1. We can notice that graph increases at slower rate, that is change in y with respect to change in x is getting slower as we reduce the values of b less than 2 and greater than 1.
Conclusion:
"The graph will increase at a slower rate"
3/4x+3-2x=-1/4x+1/2x+5
3x+12-8x=-x+2x+20
-5x+12=x+20
-5x-x=20-12
-6x=8
-6x/-6=8/-6
X=8/-6
X=-4/3
