Step-by-Step Solution

To find the correct graph, follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Identify the equation Y=5X Y = 5X as a linear function with a slope of 5 and a y-intercept of 0.
  • Step 2: Locate the graph that depicts a line passing through the origin (0,0) with a steep rise indicating a slope of 5.
  • Step 3: Examine the given choices to see which one fits this description.

After examining the choices, the appropriate graph shows a line passing through the origin with the correct slope of 5. The correct representation of the function Y=5X Y = 5X is:
