Answer:

9.5 inches per month

Explanation:

Given the information about the depth of the pond:

Month 1: 93 in

Month 2: 98 in

Month 3: 112 in

From month 1 to month 3, the average rate of change of the depth of the pond, in inches per month can be calculated using formula


\frac{\text{Depth}_3-\text{Depth}_1}{3-1}

Hence, from month 1 to month 3, what is the average rate of change of the depth of the pond, in inches per month is


(112-93)/(3-1)=(19)/(2)=9.5\ in/month
