The graph shows the rate at which the depth of the water in a pond is changing over time. On a coordinate plane, a graph titled Depth of Pond Water has Minutes on the x-axis and Feet on the y-axis. A line goes through points (2, 4) and (4, 8).
The depth of the water is increasing by ____
feet each minute.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The depth of the water is increasing by 2  feet each minute

Step-by-step explanation:

y-axis represents the depth of the water (in feet) and x-axis represents time (in minutes)

To answer the question we need to find the slope of the line. Given that the line goes through points (2, 4) and (4, 8), its slope is:

slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) =  (8 - 4)/(4 - 2) = 2

Answer:

2
