*update* Don't answer, I solved it already.
1) Given the equation y = 35(0.57)^x

a) Does this equation represent growth or decay? ______Decay_________

b) What is the rate of growth or decay? _______43%________ (in percent)
1-0.57=0.43 100x0.43=43%
c) What is the initial value? _____35________

d) Evaluate for x = 3
y=(35)(0.57)^(3)
=(35)(0.185193)
=6.481755
