We have the following function:
f(t) = −16t2 + 34t + 546
By definition, the average rate of change is:
Avr = (f (t2) - f (t1)) / (t2 - t1)
We have then:
For t1 = 5:
f (5) = -16*(5)^2 + 34*(5) + 546
f (5) = 316
For t2 = 5:
f (7) = -16*(7)^2 + 34*(7) + 546
f (7) = 0
Substituting values:
Avr = (0 - 316) / (7 - 5)
Avr = -158
Answer:
The average rate of change of f (t) from t = 5 seconds to t = 7 seconds is -158 feet per second.

So we know the tank already has 5 gallons and we need 9. This means we need 4 more gallons in order to fill up the tank.
If 1/4 gallon is being filled per minute we need to find out how many 1/4 gallons makes up 4 gallons in total.
4 of the 1/4 gallons makes up 1 whole gallon. So since we need 4 whole gallons we would need 16 of the 1/4 gallons.
This means that it will take 16 minutes for the tank to hold 9 gallons of water.
