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:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:
Substitute:
3 for x
3 for y
1 for z
