The rate of change in the table is 78 students per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the rate of change of the function

Mathematically, we can get this by using the formula;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are points we are to select from the table

Let us select the point (4,704) and (17,1718) from the table

The slope is thus;

m = (1718-704)/(17-4) = 78 students per year
