Question 1147223: In 2009 the number of vehicle sales in the United States was 10,602 thousand and in 2013 it was 15,884 thousand.
a.[3 pts] Determine the average rate of change (slope) from 2009 to 2013.
b.[3 pts] If X is the number of years since 2009 and f(X) is the number of vehicles sold, find the equation of the line through these two points.
c.[2pts] Assuming f(X) is a linear function, use the equation to predict the number of vehicles sold in 2016. Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
