Answer 3

would it be also like finding the slope?
\(\huge \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\)
coordinates will be (year, price)
so (2004,580) and (2009,650) since we are trying to find the rate of change within these two years

\(\huge \frac{650 - 580}{2009-2004} = \frac{70}{5} = \text{Rate of Change or Slope}\)

Answer 4

okay so i have to so simplify 70/5 right?

Answer 5

is the answer 14?
