A line graph shows amount in pounds on the x-axis and cost in dollars on the y-axis. Both the x-axis and y-axis range from 0 to 4 in increments of 0.25, and are marked at 1, 2, 3 and 4. A line starts at the origin and passes through plotted point left parenthesis 1.5 comma 3.75 right parenthesis.

This question seems to be based on understanding the relationship between the amount of salami bought and the cost, and plotting this relationship on a graph. Based on the information given:
Jayson bought 112 pounds of salami for $3.75.
We have to identify the graph which correctly represents this information. However, there seems to be a problem with the details given - the x-axis and y-axis of all the graph descriptions are ranging from 0 to 4, which would not be enough to show 112 pounds on the x-axis. Also, the cost $3.75 is for 112 pounds but in the options provided it seems that the price is attached to significantly smaller weights.
There might be a misunderstanding in the question, as the amount of salami (112 pounds) and the price ($3.75) do not match up with the graphs described. All the graphs have x and y-axis that only range to 4, which cannot represent 112 pounds of salami.
Furthermore, in a correct linear relationship graph representing this situation, the line should start at (0,0) because if you buy 0 pounds of salami, it should cost $0. Then, the line should pass through a point that represents the given information (salami in pounds and corresponding cost).
Given the choices provided seem incorrect, it's not possible to select the appropriate graph, unless there was an error in typing the question or the intended graph options. If the x-axis indeed represents the amount in pounds and the y-axis the cost in dollars, none of the options could accurately represent purchasing 112 pounds of salami for $3.75, as they only range to 4 on both axes.
