Use the exponential regression equation that best fits the data (10,4), (12,20), (13,35), and (16,300) to estimate y when x = 15.

A. 53.1

B. 97.2

C. 146.7*

D. 254.8

I believe that the answer is C. but I'm not entirely sure. I would appreciate some confirmation. Thank you in advance!

so, how did you arrive at your result?
I just finished taking the quiz and the answer was indeed C. 146.7.

I arrived at this result by solving for the exponential regression equation and entering the value of 15 into x. 146.7 was the closest value to what got resulted on a graphing calculator. Thank you!
