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

Answer:
D) (0, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution of two linear equations is the point of intersection of their graphs.
From the graph, the point of intersection of the graphs of the two linear equations is on the y-axis. So, the
value on the
axis is always 0. Also, the point is below the x-axis. So, the
value of the point will be negative.
From the choices given, only (0,-3) matches the above conditions.
Therefore, the correct choice is D. (0, -3).
