The graph shows the volume of water in a sink x minutes after the faucet is turned on. Water in Sink graph of a diagonal line on a coordinate plane going up and to the right with Time in minutes on the x axis and Volume in gallons on the y axis. The line begins at the origin and passes through the point 8 comma 4.

Part A
What is the slope of the line?

Slope =

Part B
Connor says that the graph shows that water is flowing at a rate of 2 gallons per minute. Is he correct?

Connor is correct because the water is flowing in at a rate which is about 2 gallons per minute.

Connor is not correct because the water is flowing in at a rate which is faster than 2 gallons per minute.

Connor is not correct because the water is flowing in at a rate which is slower than 2 gallons per minute.

Connor is correct because the rate of water flowing is less than the slope.
