Answer:

The slope is 2.

Explanation:

To find the slope we can take two points from the graph (in this example I'll use (3, 2) and (4, 4)) and input them in this expression:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)


(4-2)/(4-3)

Solve:

4 - 2 = 2

4 - 3 = 1


(2)/(1) = 2

The slope of the line connecting Saturn and Earth is 2.

Hope this helps :)
