Answer:

see the attachment

Explanation:

The cost when no sugar is transported is 3250, so that is the "y-intercept". (There is no "y". The vertical axis is labeled "c", so that is the c-intercept.)

The cost per ton is 125, so that is the slope or "rate of change". Each increase of 1 unit in the value of "s" will result in an increase of 125 in the value of "c". The grid lines for "c" are 500 apart, so 1 vertical grid space will correspond to 500/125 = 4 horizontal grid spaces.

The graph starts at the left side halfway between 3000 and 3500. It goes up 1 grid square for each 4 grid squares to the right.
