The scenario that can be modeled by an exponential function is:
the amount of a radioactive isotope that decays by one-half every 7 years.
This scenario describes exponential decay, where the quantity decreases by a constant proportion (in this case, half) over a fixed period of time. In contrast, the other scenarios involve linear decay or motion and do not represent exponential functions.
