Answer:

  9 pastries per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 7 hours after the first, the baker made 83 -20 = 63 more pastries. That rate is ...

  (63 pastries)/(7 hours) = 9 pastries per hour

_____

Additional comment

We have chosen to interpret the question as asking for the slope of a line on a graph of pastries vs. hours. Such a graph would show you the baker started with 11 pastries already made, so didn't actually make 20 in the first hour.
