    c. x1 + 3x2 = 6

    Explanation:

    Budget Line is the combination of goods that consumer can buy with given prices & Income (spending all).

    Equation: p1. x1 + p2. x2 = m

    where p1 & p2 are respective prices; q1 & q2 are respective quantities; m is the money income.

    Putting p1 = 3, p2 = 9 as given:

    3x1 + 9x2 = 18

    Dividing the equation by common factor = 3, we get:

    x1 + 3x2 = 6
