i think its either a or c

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please, note that your equation is: y=m*x. Now using your graph, we have to find m.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

as I can see from your graph, I read that: when x=2, y=15. So I substitute x=2, and y=15, in the above equation, y=mx.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

then I can write: \[15=m*2\] and dividing by 2, we have: m=15/2.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

So our equation is: \[y=\frac{ 15 }{ 2 }x\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

or using your symbols:\[p=\frac{ 15 }{ 2 }b\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

so c., namely the third option
