Answer:

The first choice: the amount of money Jason earns per hour

Explanation:

We know that y represents the amount of money, and x represents the number of hours worked by Jason. The slope of a graph is the rise over the run. In other words, it is y/x (y is rise because it describes vertical change, and x is run because it describes horizontal change). So, when you take the slope of the graph, you are taking the amount of money earned and dividing it by the number of hours worked. It is a rate of change that describes the amount of money PER hour. Therefore, the correct answer to this question is the first answer choice: the amount of money Jason earns per hour
