A homeowner noticed that water was leaking into a basement and the depth was changing linearly. When they walked into the room, the depth of the water was 3.4 centimters. After 10 minutes, the depth was 5.6 centimeters. If we were to write an equatin for the line that models the depth of the water, what is the slope of that equation (in centimeters/minute)? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth (do not include units).
