c. This relationship is Response area, because 0 tickets sold is dollars earned.

It seems like you're discussing a relationship or a scenario where the number of tickets sold corresponds to the amount of money earned. In the context of this relationship, when 0 tickets are sold, it results in $0 earned, which indicates that there is no revenue generated in that case.

This kind of relationship can often be represented in a linear equation format where:

  • The x-axis represents the number of tickets sold (let's call it \( x \)).
  • The y-axis represents the money earned (let's call it \( y \)).

In the case you've provided, if 0 tickets sold results in 0 dollars earned, it suggests a direct proportionality that can be expressed with the equation:

\[ y = mx + b \]

Where:

  • \( m \) is the slope of the line (corresponding to the price per ticket if tickets are sold).
  • \( b \) is the y-intercept. In this case, \( b = 0 \) since no tickets sold means no earnings.

This means the graph of this relationship would start at the origin point (0,0) and would increase linearly as more tickets are sold, assuming each ticket earns a positive price.

If you can provide additional details or context, I would be happy to expand on this further!
