Answer 1

Let x = number of people asked and y = number of items donated. Each person donates 13 items, so y = 13x.

Table (arithmetic sequence):
- x (people asked): 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
- y (items donated): 0, 13, 26, 39, 52

Graph: a straight line through (0,0) with slope 13.

Most appropriate y-axis label: number of items donated.
