The correct answer is c. 2 hours
Explanation:
The graphic shows the relationship between the distance Erin covers by running and the time this requires. Additionally, to know the specific time that takes for Erin to run a specific distance or vice versa it is necessary to observe at which point the two variables intersect in the line of the graph.
According to this, Erin runs 25 miles (y-axis) in 2.5 hours (x-axis), which you can know because in the line shown by the graph the distance 25 miles that is in the middle of 20 and 30 miles intersects with 2.5 hours or the middle between 2 and 3. Additionally, this number can be expressed as 2 and a half hours, 2.5 or even 2 hours because the fraction represents half. This makes option C the answer.
