Step-by-step explanation:
the average rate of change of a function f in an interval [x-low, x-high] is
(f(x-high) - f(x-low)) / (x-high - x-low)
the year 2000 means t = 2000-1980 = 20
the year 2015 means t = 2015-1980 = 35
so, we have
(A(35) - A(20)) / (35 - 20)
((-0.6(35)² + 37.2×35 + 243) - (-0.6(20)² + 37.2×20 + 243)) / 15
((-735 + 1302 + 243) - (-240 + 744 + 243)) / 15
(810 - 747) / 15 = 63/15 = 4.2
the average change rate between 2000 and 2015 is 4.2.
that means that the use of nuclear energy in the USA increased by 4.2 billions of kilowatt hours per year during that period.

H1 (t) = 196 - 16 t-squared. / / / H2 (t) = 271-16t-squared. / / / In each function, 't' is the number of seconds after that ball is dropped. / / / Each function is only true until the first time that H=0, that is, until the first bounce. Each function becomes very complicated after that, and we would need more information in order to write it.
