Answer:

8.2 miles per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for graph

Required

The rate of Tyler's graph

This means that we calculate the slope (m) of the graph using:

[tex]m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex](x_1 ,y_1) = (0,0)[/tex]

[tex](x_1 ,y_1) = (1,8.2)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{0 - 8.2}{0 - 1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{-8.2}{- 1}[/tex]

[tex]m = 8.2}[/tex]
