• Taylor can write 6 words per minute

• Taylor can write 25 words per minute

• Taylor can write 50 words per minute

• Taylor can write 150 words per minute

Answer explanation

find any two points on the graphed line. Find the rise and the run to get from one point to the next. Divide the rise by the run. That is your slope and it is also your rate!
