Answer:

b = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

V = ab^t

See attachment for graph

From the graph

V = 20 when t = 0

This implies that:

V = ab^t

20 = ab^0

20 = a * 1

20 = a

a = 20

Also:

V = 4 when t = 1.5

So:

4 = ab^{1.5

Substitute 20 for a

4 = 20 * b^{1.5

Divide by 20

0.2 =b^{1.5

b^{1.5} = 0.2

Take 1.5th root of both sides

b = 0.34199518933

b = 0.3 --- approximated
