Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent increase, we will need to find the difference between the two populations.

6300 - 5600 = 700 people.

Now, divide this increase by the original population:

$\frac{700}{5600} = 0.125$

Multiply this by 100 to get your percent of increase:

0.125 × 100 = 12.5%

Find the average rate of change of the function over the given interval

sattari [20]

$\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average\ rate\\
of\ change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf h(t)=cot(t)\implies h(t)=\cfrac{cos(t)}{sin(t)}\quad 
\begin{cases}
t_1=\frac{\pi }{4}\\
t_2=\frac{3\pi }{4}
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{h\left( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right)-h\left( \frac{\pi }{4} \right)}{\frac{3\pi }{4}-\frac{\pi }{4}}
\\\\\\$

$\bf \cfrac{\frac{cos\left( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right)}{sin\left( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right)}-\frac{cos\left( \frac{\pi }{4} \right)}{sin\left( \frac{\pi }{4} \right)}}{\frac{\pi }{2}}\implies \cfrac{-1-1}{\frac{\pi }{2}}\implies \cfrac{-2}{\frac{\pi }{2}}\implies -\cfrac{4}{\pi }\\\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf h(t)=cot(t)\implies h(t)=\cfrac{cos(t)}{sin(t)}\quad 
\begin{cases}
t_1=\frac{\pi }{3}\\
t_2=\frac{3\pi }{2}
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{h\left( \frac{3\pi }{2} \right)-h\left( \frac{\pi }{3} \right)}{\frac{3\pi }{2}-\frac{\pi }{3}}
\\\\\\$

$\bf \cfrac{\frac{cos\left( \frac{3\pi }{2} \right)}{sin\left( \frac{3\pi }{2} \right)}-\frac{cos\left( \frac{\pi }{3} \right)}{sin\left( \frac{\pi }{3} \right)}}{\frac{9\pi -2\pi }{6}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{0}{-1}-\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}}{\frac{7\pi }{6}}\implies\cfrac{-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{\frac{7\pi }{6}}\implies -\cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\cdot \cfrac{6}{7\pi }
\\\\\\
-\cfrac{2\sqrt{3}}{7\pi }$
