Question 5 • LJISD-TX-Precalculus-B-CR
From 1950 to 1990, the median age increased from 22.8 to 26.1 years, a change of 26.1 − 22.8 = 3.3 years. The time interval is 1990 − 1950 = 40 years, so the average rate of change is 3.3 ÷ 40 = 0.0825 years of age per year. The correct choice is A, 0.0825 years of age per year.
