Answer:

8

Explanation:

You want the number of books Brody reads each month given that he had read 15 books by his birthday, and 55 books by 5 months after his birthday.

Rate

In the 5 months since Brody's birthday, the graph shows you he has read an additional (55 -15) = 40 books.

As an average rate, that is ...

(40 books)/(5 months) = (40/5) books/month = 8 books/month

Brody reads 8 books each month.
