Chapter 2, Problem 30

(choose chapter or problem)

The function f(x) = 1.1x3 - 35x2 + 264x + 557 models thenumber of discharges, f(x), under dont ask, dont tell x yearsafter 1994. Use this model and its graph, shown below, to solveExercises 2930.a. Find the slope of the secant line, rounded to the nearestwhole number, from x1 = 7 to x2 = 12.b. Does the slope from part (b) underestimate oroverestimate the average yearly decrease that youdetermined in Exercise 28? By how much?
