Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
if the ratio (yx) of two variables (x and y) is equal to a constant (k=yx) .in this case y is said to be directly proportional to x with proportionality constant k
Could you take another photo with you zoomed a lil bit more so I can answer it?
The awser for this problem im preety sure is going to be aswer c
Turn the information into coordinate points.
Point = (time, population)
Point 1 = (1985, 45000)
Point 2 = (2004 , 26000)
Find the slope between these points using the formula
( Slope)—> m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
26000-45000/2004-1985=-19000/19= -1000
Average rate of change is decrease of 1000 sea lion per year
I hope that helped
