Housing Starts Exercises 43–46 refer to the following graph, which shows the number f(t) of housing starts in the U.S. each year from 2000 through 2010 (t = 0 represents 2000, and f(t) is the number of housing starts in year t in thousands of units).

Which has the larger magnitude: f (5) − f (0) or f (9) − f (7)? Interpret the answer.
