Marjam has a goal of taking at least 10,000 steps today. According to her watch, 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)

In order to meet her goal of 10,000 steps, Marjam will need to take 7,500 steps for the rest of the day. Since there are 10 hours left in the day, she will need to take an average of 750 steps per hour for the rest of the day.
The graph that most clearly communicates this solution would be a bar graph with 10 bars, each representing one hour. The height of each bar would represent the number of steps Marjam needs to take in each hour, with each bar having a height of 750 steps. This graph would visually show that Marjam needs to take the same number of steps each hour for the rest of the day in order to meet her goal.
