Answer:
4% decay
Therefore, option A is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given a function:
[tex]y=(0.96)^x[/tex]
Our general equation of exponential decay is:
[tex]y=a(1-\frac{b}{100})^x[/tex]
On comparing the decay with general equation we get:
[tex]1-\frac{b}{100}=0.96[/tex]
On simplification:
[tex]\frac{b}{100}=.96-1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{b}{100}=-0.04[/tex]
[tex]b=4%[/tex]
Hence, 4% decay
Therefore, option A is correct.
