The function given is y = 12(17/10)^x.
To determine whether it represents exponential growth or exponential decay, we need to look at the base of the exponential term.
The base is (17/10) which is greater than 1. This means that as x increases, the value inside the exponential term will also increase, resulting in exponential growth.
Therefore, the answer is: a. exponential growth; 1.7
