Answer:

B

Explanation:

so your starting value (10) is not going to have the x by it. instead he is feeding his dog so it will be subtracted from.

x is the number of days he can feed his dog. this will be mulitplied with something.

0.5 is how much he feeds his dog each day. this will be times the number of days or x.

so it makes your answer
y=10-0.5x
