B as we start with X intercept = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 10 x 6 = 60

(v = 1/6x = 6x x 10y) x = 60v

y=10

When x=0 then y = 0 when x = 10 we have 10 minutes each count

So the graph will go up by 10 to 60 on the x axis.

value of nickle=6 and units of 10 nickles have value of 60

But this is a measure of time using nickles for x.

and measure of quarters can then show a pattern of zero each time. y=mc+x = 0 when y=0 = y=1x0+0 when x = 6 and y=0
