To determine the value of each electronic device based on the points provided on the graph, we first note the points given: (0, 0) and (5, 40). Here, the x-coordinate represents the number of devices produced, and the y-coordinate represents the total value of those devices.
From the point (5, 40):
- 5 devices yield a total value of $40.
To find the value of each device, we can divide the total value by the number of devices:
\[
\text{Value per device} = \frac{\text{Total value}}{\text{Number of devices}} = \frac{40}{5} = 8
\]
Thus, the value of each electronic device is **$8.00**.
The correct answer is **C. $8.00**.
