Answers
GPT 3.5
The correct graph that represents the number of cakes per hour Eileen can bake would have a slope of 3/5.
Option A: The line is going downward, which means the slope is negative, and it is not the best representation of Eileen's baking capacity.
Option B: The line is flat, which means there is no change per hour, and it is not the best representation of Eileen's baking capacity.
Option C: The line is going upward, which means the slope is positive, but the slope is too steep and does not accurately represent Eileen's baking capacity.
Option D: The line is going upward, which means the slope is positive, and it has the same slope as the rate at which Eileen can bake cakes per hour (3/5). Therefore, option D best represents the number of cakes per hour Eileen can bake.
