Respuesta :

We are asked to determine the rate of increase in the value of a home,

We need to have into account that at the beginning of the considered period the cost was 279000 and after two years the cost is 401500, therefore, we can use the following formula:

[tex]r=\frac{\Delta C}{\Delta t}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \Delta C=\text{ difference in cost} \\ \Delta t=\text{ difference in time} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, we substitute the values:

[tex]r=\frac{401500-279000}{2}[/tex]

Solving the operations:

[tex]r=61250[/tex]

Therefore, the rate is an increase of $61250 per year.
