The graph shows the number of trips taken annually on a certain state's mass transportation system. Find the average rate of change of the number of trips from 1992 to 1995, from 1995 to 2000, and from 1992 to 1998. 10- 8- Annual Trips on a State's Mass Transportation System 8.4 million 7+ 1992 7.3 million 1994 1996 9.8 million 8.7 million 1998 2000 Q N ... The average rate of change from 1992 to 1995 is million per year. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) Suppose that a fashion company determines that the cost, in dollars, of producing x cellphone-sunglasses is given by C(x) = -0.05x +55x. C(251) - C(250) Find 251-250 Find -, and interpret the significance of this result to the company. C(251)-C(250) 251-250 C(251) - C(250) 251-250 (Simplify your answer.) The median weights of a sample of baby girls at age t months are graphed to the right. Use the graph to answer parts (a) through (e) below. (a) Estimate the average growth rate of a girl during her first 12 months. *** Median weight of baby girls (in pounds) 40- 36- 32- 28- 24- 20- 16- 12- 00 6 12 18 24 Age (in months) 30 36 O 1.36 The home range, in hectares, of a carnivorous mammal weighing w grams can be approximated by H(w) = 0.11w a) Find the average rate at which a carnivorous mammal's home range increases as the animal's weight grows from 550 g to 750 g.
