The correct answer is - B. mutualistic.

The symbiotic relationship shown in this graph is most likely a mutualistic symbiotic relationship. In a mutualistic symbiotic relationship, the two species benefit from one another, in a way they collaborate for the well being of both of them. This leads to a situation where with the increase in numbers of one of the species, the other species also experiences increase in numbers, and if one of them has a decrease in numbers, it is very likely that the other species will experience the same.

In this graph we have exactly that kind of situation, one of the species experiences increase in numbers, and the other species follows the same pattern, which most likely means that a mutualistc symbiotic relationship exist between these two species.

The system of equation that represents this situation is y = 20x + 15 for day and night kernel and y = 30x + 5 for bark time hotel.

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y.

Let y represent the total charges for for boarding a pet in x days.

Day and night kennel charges $20 per day plus a one-time food fee of $15 to board a pet. Hence:

y = 20x + 15

Bark time hotel charges $30 per day plus a one-time food fee of $5. Hence:

y = 30x + 5
