Answer: B

If you look at the table, you notice that he earns 30 without selling ice cream bars. This is his fixed salary.

When he sells one ice cream bar, he earns 34, which means he gets 4 dollars for each bar he sells.

The equation that best represents the relationship between x and y is b) y = 4x + 30, because 4 dollars × number of ice cream bars + fixed salary equals his total earnings.
