He graph shows the distance Henry drives on a trip. What is Henry’s speed

Question
Answer:
Answer with explanation:   Speed               [tex]=\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Time taken}}[/tex]When you will observe the graphTime is represented on X axisAnd , Distance traveled is represented on Y axis.In 5 hours ,Henry travels a distance of 300 miles.So, in 1 hour distance traveled by Henry      [tex]=\frac{300}{5}\\\\=60[/tex] milesSo, Speed of Henry [tex]=60 \frac{miles}{hour}[/tex]Speed can be calculated by this method also  [tex]=\frac{\text{Difference in two y values lying on the straight line}}{\text{Corresponding x values}}\\\\=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\=\frac{300-0}{5-0}\\\\=60 \frac{miles}{hour}[/tex]Option D: 60 miles per hour
