A snowstorm took place during the weekend. Meteorologists tracked the total amount of snowfall for the storm. For the first 2 hours, it snowed at a rate of 1 inch per hour. The snow stopped for an hour and a half, then resumed at a rate of 1.5 inches per hour for the next 3 hours. Based on this information, what scale would work best for representing the data on the x-axis?(1 point)

The best scale for representing the data on the x-axis would be 2, because it includes enough units to accurately represent the change in snowfall rate over time.
