y=62(1.04)t
y equals 62 left parenthesis 1.04 right parenthesis superscript t baseline

y=62(0.04)t
y equals 62 left parenthesis 0.04 right parenthesis superscript t baseline

y=62(0.6)t
y equals 62 left parenthesis 0.6 right parenthesis superscript t baseline

y=62(0.96)t
y equals 62 left parenthesis 0.96 right parenthesis superscript t baseline

Answer 1

y=62(0.96)t
