Chapter 11.3, Problem 39E, ImmigrationThe following graph shows how immigration (in thousands) to the United States has varied

  1. (a) Find the average annual rate of change in immigration for the first half of the century (from 1910 to 1960).
  2. (b) Find the average annual rate of change in immigration for the second half of the century (from 1960 to 2010).
  3. (c) Find the average annual rate of change in immigration for the entire century (from 1910 to 2010).
  4. (d) Average your answers to parts (a) and (b), and compare the result with your answer from part (c). Will these always be equal for any two time periods?
  5. (e) If the annual average rate of change for the last half-century continues, predict the number of immigrants in 2013. Compare your answer to the actual number of 990,553 immigrants.
