To determine decay factor from the given
table, we can analyze the points provided. The key points on the table are:
(-3, 27)
(-2, 9)
(-1, 3)
(0, 1)
Notice the relationship between consecutive
y-values:
From (-3, 27) to (-2, 9), y goes from 27 to
9.
From (-2, 9) to (-1, 3), y goes from 9 to
3.
From (-1, 3) to (0, 1), y goes from 3 to 1.
This consistent multiplication by
