Solution

The correct option is C y=10x+200
It is given that on the first day, there were 200 customers.

∴ Value of y-intercept, b = 200

It is also given that number of buyers for hotdogs are increasing
by 10 persons per day.

∴ Value of slope, m = 10

Equation of line with y-intercept of value b is,
y=mx+b

So, the correct equation for the straight line is,
y=10x+200

Graphically representing this data, we get,
