In fact,according to the Department of the Treasury, the debt perperson living in the United States is approximately $53,000(or over $140,000 per U.S. household). The following datarepresent the U.S. debt for the years 2001–2014. Since thedebt D depends on the year y, and each input correspondsto exactly one output, the debt is a function of the year.

A major objective of the RRA was to promote electronic filing of tax returns. The data in the table that follows show the percentage of individual income tax returns filed electronically for filing years 2000–2008. Since the percentage P of returns filed electronically depends on the filing year y and each input corresponds to exactly one output, the percentage of returns filed electronically is a function of the filing year;so P(y) represents the percentage of returns filed electronically for filing year y. (a) Find the average rate of change of the percentage of e-filed returns from 2000 to 2002. (b) Find the average rate of change of the percentage of e-filed returns from 2004 to 2006.
