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)

The parking fee rises by $10 with each additional hour.

The parking fee rises by $7.33 with each additional hour.

The parking fee rises by $6 with each additional hour. This is because the slope of the graph, or the rate of change, is equal to the change in the fee divided by the change in the number of hours, which is (44-20)/(6-2) = 24/4 = $6.
