Fit an exponential distribution to these data using an appropriate optimizer (R)

the question I don't know how to do is:

The data displayed in your histogram in Q4 appear, at first glance, to be exponentially distributed, at least approximately. Fit an exponential distribution to these data using an appropriate optimizer. (You need not include the gradient here.) Display the optimized value of the rate parameter.

Please help me out, I'm confused!
