A statement which best describes the function shown in the table is: B. exponential, there is a continual rate of decay or decrease.

What is an exponential function?

An exponential function is a mathematical function whose numerical values (numerals) are generated by a constant that is raised to the power of an argument.

Given the following table:

X : -4        -1        2            4              5

Y :  16        2       0.25   0.0625    0.03125

Next, we would calculate the rate of decay for the y-values:

16/2 = 2/0.25 = 0.25/0.0625 = 0.0625/0.03125 = 8

Rule: The y-values constantly decreases by 1/4 or 0.25 of the previous number.

In conclusion, we can logically deduce that the function shown in the table is exponential, there is a continual rate of decay or decrease.
