The chart shows the total annual support for the arts in the U.S. by federal, state, and local government in 1995-2003 as a function of time in years ( t=0t = 0 represents 1995) together with the regression line.  The chart shows the total annual support for the arts in the U.S. by federal, state, and local government in 1995-2003 as a function of time in years (  t = 0  represents 1995) together with the regression line.       Over the period  [ 0,4 ]  the average rate of change of government funding for the arts was _____ the rate predicted by the regression line.   Over the period [0,4][ 0,4 ] the average rate of change of government funding for the arts was _____ the rate predicted by the regression line.

The function R(t)=1,120+79t−t3R ( t ) = 1,120 + 79 t - t ^ { 3 } represents the value of the U.S. dollar in Indian rupees as a function of the time t in days. Find the average rates of change of R(t)R ( t ) over the time intervals [t,t+h][ t , t + h ] , where t is as indicated and h=1h = 1 , 0.10.1 , 0.010.01 , and 0.00010.0001 days. Hence, estimate (using h=0.0001h = 0.0001 ) the instantaneous rate of change of  R \text { R } at time t=2t = 2 . Select your answer rounded to the nearest whole number.
