To determine which scatterplot models an exponential relationship, we typically look for a specific pattern in the data points. An exponential relationship has the following characteristics:

  1. The y-values increase (or decrease) rapidly as the x-values increase.
  2. The points will tend to form a curve that rises steeply (or falls steeply) rather than forming a straight line.

Unfortunately, I cannot view the images directly, but you can identify the scatterplot that best represents an exponential relationship by looking for the plot where the points show a clear curve that increases or decreases rapidly.

If you can describe the patterns or characteristics of the scatterplots, I would be glad to help you identify which one might represent an exponential relationship!
