answer:

$0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

the function can be represented as:

 

f(x)=0.25x+3.5

 

the function produces the following values for years 1, 2, and 3 respectively:

 

f(1)=0.25(1)+3.5=3.75

f(2)=0.25(2)+3.5=4.00

f(3)=0.25(3)+3.5=4.25

 

therefore, 

 

there is a $0.75 increase per year
