I think it would be
+A%285%29+-+A%282%29+
+.008%2A5%5E3+-+.008%2A2%5E3+-+.3%2A5%5E2+%2B+.3%2A2%5E2+%2B+2.4%2A5+-+2.4%2A2+%2B+9+-+9+
+.008%2A%28+5%5E3+-+2%5E3+%29+-+.3%2A25+%2B+.3%2A4+%2B+2.4%2A3+
+.008%2A%28+125+-+8+%29+-+7.5+%2B+1.2+%2B+7.2+
+.008%2A117+%2B+.9+
+.936+%2B+.9++=+1.836+
Average change in activity from 2 to 5 PM is 1.836
