in 2005 17,445 vehicles were sold and in 2009 10,601 vehicles sold. Determine the average rate of change (slope) from 2005 to 2009 and interpret the results Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! in 2005 17,445 vehicles were sold and in 2009 10,601 vehicles sold. Determine the average rate of change (slope) from 2005 to 2009 and interpret the results
----------
slope = (10,601-17445)/(2009-2005) = -1711
-----
Interp:: for each year the # of vehicles sold declined by 1711 cars
