Answer:

5200 deer/year

Step-by-step explanation:

  • [tex]rateofchange=changeinpopulation \div changeinyears[/tex]
  • we will call the rate of change, the slope of the function
  • [tex]slope=(72000-46000)deer\div (1990-1985)years\\=26000deer\div 5years\\=(\frac{26000}{5}) deer/year\\==5200deer/year[/tex]
