Answer:

50 miles per hour.

Explanation:

In this graph, distance covered by Kerri has been shown on y-axis and time on x-axis.

Speed of Kerri will be defined by the rate of change in distance which is slope of the line.

Speed =
\frac{\text{change in distance}}{\text{change in time}}

=
(300-0)/(6-0) = 50 miles per hour.
