Respuesta :

From the table

Rate of change in the number of fish in the lake between t=6 years and t=12 years

for t = 6 population of fish = 3600

for t = 12 population of fish = 14400

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Rate of chnage in the number of fish betw}een\text{ t = 6 and t = 12} \\ =\text{ }\frac{14400\text{ - 3600}}{12\text{ - 6}} \\ =\text{ }\frac{10800}{6} \\ =\text{ 1,800 fish per year} \end{gathered}[/tex]
