Answer:
(a) 0.107 million per year
(b) 0.114 million per year
Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The average rate of change between 2000 and 2014 is determined by dividing the difference in the populations in the two years by the number of years. In the year 2000,
and in 2014,
. Mathematically,


(b) The instantaneous rate of change is determined by finding the differential derivative at that year.
The result of differentiating functions of the firm
(where
is a constant) is
. Let's use in this in finding the derivative of
.

In the year 2014,
.

Answer:
f(x)=1/4x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
y-intercept is -3
-3=b
rise over round to find the slope
up 1 over 4
m=1/4
Answer:
6 percent increase
Step-by-step explanation:
2650 divided by 2500 gives you 1.06 which means if 2500 is 100 percent 2650 would be 106 percent so the answer is a 6 percent increase
