    The given equation is confusing since you may not have correctly copy pasted the correct equation. But since given problem specifically stated that the equation is an exponential one, therefore I think the correct one must be in the form of:

    y = 14.08 * 2.08^x

    Since we are to look for the number of fish in year 6, therefore x must be equal to 6 (x = 6) and looking for y:

    y = 14.08 * 2.08^6

    y = 14.08 * 80.98041718

    y = 1140.20

    Therefore the number of fish in the lake in year 6 would be about 1140.

    Answer: A. 1140
