Answer:

A = 0.05 billion visits per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The number of visits to public libraries increased from 1.3 billion in 1998 to 1.5 billion in 2002.

We need to find the average rate of change in the number of public library visits from 1998 to 2002.

So,

[tex]A=\dfrac{1.5-1.3}{2002-1998}\\\\A=0.05\ \text{billion visits per year}[/tex]

Hence, the required average rate is 0.05 billion visits per year.
