Answer:

B. The total amount paid for gas compared with the number of gallons purchased.

Explanation:

A constant rate of change means that for every change in x, there is the same change in y every time.

Gasoline has a set price; this means each gallon costs a specific amount. Each gallon you get will add that amount to the total; this is a constant rate of change.
