Assume the points are (-1, 10) and (2, 160). Let y = a b^x. From x = −1: 10 = a b^(−1) ⇒ a = 10b. From x = 2: 160 = a b^2 = 10b·b^2 = 10 b^3 ⇒ b^3 = 16 ⇒ b = 16^(1/3).

Thus a = 10·16^(1/3) and
y = a b^x = 10·16^(1/3) · (16^(1/3))^x = 10·16^{(x+1)/3}.

(Equivalent form: y = 10 · 2^{4(x+1)/3}.)

If I misread the table, tell me the exact points and I’ll redo it.
