s = 1/3 c (option B)
Explanation:
To find the relationship between number of cups and green chiles made, we use the equation of line formula:
y = mx + b
from the graph,
where s represents = y
x represents = c
m = slope = change in sauce/change in green chiles
we pick any two points to get the slope
using points (c, s) = (0, 0) and (6, 2)
slope = (2-0)/(6-0)
slope = 2/6 = 1/3
There is no intercept on this graph, because it starts from the origin
b = intercept = 0
The equation becomes: s = 1/3c + 0
s = 1/3 c (option B)
