Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of orange juice to pineapple juice is:


r=\frac{\text{orange juice}}{\text{ pineapple juice}}=(30)/(18)=(5)/(3)

And the function can be written as:


\text{orange juice}=(5)/(3)\text{ pineapple juice}

To choose one graph we have to identify one point in each of them and check if the expression above is true for that point. This chosen point cannot be (0,0).
