In this image, you are calculating the rate of change for the number of electric vehicles, likely using a linear model based on data from two years.

Let's break down the key parts visible:

1. Calculating the Rate of Change:

   • You've subtracted the values $63,525 - 0$ over the years to determine the change, leading to a rate of $11,063$ vehicles per year.

2. Applying the Rate of Change:

   • It appears you have used this rate to project or calculate missing values for specific years.
   • For example, you are working on the output values for Year 0, Year 4.5, and Year 5 based on the rate.

3. Formulas Applied:

   • You seem to have used the slope formula $\text{slope} = \frac{\text{change in output}}{\text{change in input}}$ to find the rate of change (vehicles per year).

Tip

When calculating rate of change, always ensure the units align, and double-check your values for consistency, especially when rounding intermediate calculations.
