The quantity that describes the x-axis in the function \( y = 80x + 2 \), where \( x \) represents the number of hours, is:
time in hours
This is because the graph shows a relationship between time (in hours) and Carli's speed or distance traveled, with \( x \) typically representing the independent variable (in this case, time).
