determine the average rate of change in median age per year from 1950 to 1990.

The average rate of change in median age per year from 1950 to 1990 is:

                                 0.085

We know that the average rate of change is defined as the ratio of difference of one quantity with respect to the difference of the other quantity.

We are given table of values as:

Year               Median Age

1910                  25.1  

1920                  24.6

1930                  24.3

1940                  24.3

1950                  22.8

1960                  22.8
