Transcribed Image Text:### People Entering a School Over Time
The table below represents the rate at which people enter a school over a period of 6 seconds. The variable \( t \) represents time in seconds, and \( P(t) \) represents the rate of people entering the school, measured in people per second.
| \( t \) (seconds) | 0 | 1 | 4 | 6 |
|----------------|---|---|---|---|
| \( P(t) \) (people per second) | 8 | 3 | 5 | 10 |
For \( 0 \leq t \leq 6 \) seconds, people enter a school at the rate \( P(t) \), measured in people per second.
### Explanation of the Table
- At \( t = 0 \) seconds, the rate of people entering the school is 8 people per second.
- At \( t = 1 \) second, the rate decreases to 3 people per second.
- At \( t = 4 \) seconds, the rate increases slightly to 5 people per second.
- At \( t = 6 \) seconds, the rate further increases to 10 people per second.
