Exponential Regression

A box containing 1,000 coins is shaken, and the coins are emptied onto a table. Only the coins that land heads up are returned to the box, and then the process is repeated. The accompanying table shows the number of trials and the number of coins returned to the box after each trial.

Write an exponential regression equation that represents the table.
