To predict the science exam score for a student who scores an 84 on their math exam using the trend line equation \( y = 0.75x + 10 \), we can substitute \( x = 84 \) into the equation.

\[
y = 0.75(84) + 10
\]

Now calculate \( 0.75 \times 84 \):

\[
0.75 \times 84 = 63
\]

Now add 10:

\[
y = 63 + 10 = 73
\]

Therefore, the predicted science exam score for a student who scores an 84 on their math exam is **73**.

The answer is **B. 73**.
