Since Marjam has 10 hours left in the day and she wants to take at least 10,000 steps, she will need to walk 10,000 / 10 = 1,000 steps per hour for the rest of the day.
The graph that most clearly communicates this solution is the third graph, which shows a number line ranging from 0 to 900 in 100 unit increments. It has an open point labeled and plotted at 750, with a line extending from that point to the right and going past 900. This graph represents the steps per hour for the remainder of the day and shows that Marjam needs to walk at least 1,000 steps per hour to meet her goal.
Marjam has a goal of taking at least 10,000 steps today. According to her pedometer, she got 2,500 steps in the morning. There are 10 hours left in the day. How many steps will she need to get each hour (assume she walks the same number of steps each hour) for the rest of the day to meet her goal? Solve this problem. Which graph most clearly communicates the solution?(1 point)

A number line is marked with 10 equidistant tick marks. An open point is plotted halfway between the eighth and ninth tick marks from the left. A line extends from that point to the right and goes past the last tick mark.

An illustration shows a number line labeled Marjam’s Steps per Hour for the Remainder of the Day. The number line ranges from 0 to 900 in 100 unit increments. A closed point is plotted at 750. A line extends from that point to the right and goes past 900.
