Use the image to answer the question.
A graph with the x-axis representing oranges ranging from 0 to 36 in increments of 3 and the y-axis representing dollars ranging from 0 to 20 in increments of 1 shows six plotted points, 3 each for option A and option B. Option A has the following points: left parenthesis 12 comma 5 right parenthesis; left parenthesis 24 comma 10 right parenthesis; and left parenthesis 36 comma 15 right parenthesis. Option B has the following points: left parenthesis 9 comma 6 right parenthesis; left parenthesis 18 comma 12 right parenthesis; and left parenthesis 27 comma 18 right parenthesis.

To answer this question, we need to look at the plotted points on the graph. The x-axis represents the number of oranges and the y-axis represents the number of dollars.
For option B, we have the following points: (9, 6), (18, 12), and (27, 18).
These points tell us that for every 9 oranges, we have 6 dollars. So the ratio for Option B is 9 dollars for every 6 oranges.
Therefore, the correct answer is: 9 dollars for every 6 oranges.
