B. The parking fee rises by $7.33 with each additional hour.
To find the slope (rate of change), we use the formula:
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
where y represents the parking fee in dollars and x represents the hours parked.
Thus,
slope = (44-20)/(6-2) = 24/4 = 6
This means that for each additional hour parked, the parking fee increases by $6. Therefore, the answer is C.
A linear graph of parking fees in dollars based on hours parked has the points (2,20) and (6,44). How would you interpret the slope of the graph as the rate of change in the parking fee for each additional hour of parking?(1 point)
A. The parking fee rises by $10 with each additional hour.
B. The parking fee rises by $7.33 with each additional hour.
C. The parking fee rises by $6 with each additional hour.
D. The parking fee rises by $8 with each additional hour.

Is it B or C
I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. The correct answer is C. The parking fee rises by $6 with each additional hour, as determined by the slope of the linear graph. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
