We solve this by the definition of slope in analytical geometry. The definition of slope is the rise over run. In equation, that would be

m = Δy/Δx = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

The x-coordinates here are the t values, while the y-coordinates are the f(t) values. So, let's find the y values of the boundaries.

At t=2: f(t)= 0.25(2)²<span> − 0.5(2) + 3.5 = 3.5
Point 1 is (2, 3.5)
At t=6: </span>f(t)= 0.25(6)² − 0.5(6) + 3.5 = 9.5
Point 2 is (6, 9.5)

The slope would then be

m = (9.5-3.5)/(6-2)
m = 1.5

Hence, the slope is 1.5. Interpreting the data, the rate of change between t=2 and t=6 is 1.5 thousands per year.
