Answer 2

Answer:

The slope is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function graphed shows the total distance she hiked, in miles, after x hours on the second day.

Seeing at the graph, we have the following points.

(2,8) , (3,10) , (4,12)

For slope we will do the following.

$\frac{10-8}{3-2} =\frac{2}{1}$ = 2

$\frac{12-10}{4-3} =\frac{2}{1}$ = 2

So, the slope is 2.

The slope represents that 2 miles is hiked in each hour.
