Solution:

We are given that

Shaneese is buying peanuts and cashews.

he has $12 to spend.

peanuts cost $3 per pound and cashews cost $4 per pound.

she buys x pounds of peanuts and y pounds of cashews.

The equation that represents the amount of each is 3x + 4y = 12.

Now we have been asked to find the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept , we need to set x=0

when x=0, equation becomes

3*0 + 4y = 12.

0 + 4y = 12.

4y = 12.

Divide both the sides by 4 we get

y = 3

Hence the y-intercept is 3.

An 8-pound bag of tomatoes costs $5.60. At the same rate, what would be the cost of 11 pounds of tomatoes?
Evgesh-ka [11]
Here is the solution to the given problem above.
Given that for an 8 pound bag of tomatoes costs $5.60, we would want to know how much will it be for 11 pounds. First, we should know how much does it cost per pound. So 5.60 divided by 8 is 0.7. So per pound of tomatoes costs $0.7. Now to know how much for 11 pounds, we multiply 0.7 by 11 and we get $7.70. The correct answer therefore would be option C. $7.70. Hope this answer helps.

Maddox wants to go back to college full-time. His current employer has agreed to reduce his hours from 40 hours to 25 hours whil
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Best fit for his new situation is modified budget A

Step-by-step explanation:

lets first calculate Wages which will be earned by Maddox after reduction of working hours .

from his current situation we can say that ,

for working of 40 hours ,  Maddox monthly income wages = $1760

so  for working of 1 hour , Maddox monthly income wages = $1760÷40=$44

hence for working of 25 hour , Maddox monthly income wages will be $44 × 25 = $1100.

So New wages after reduction of working hours will be $1100. but if you see , in budget B and C , Income wages is considered as $1600 which will not be case after reduction of working hours to 25 . hence Maddox cannot go for Modified Budget B and Modified Budget C.

So he needs to decide between Modified Budget A and Modified Budget D.

Now lets concentrate upon Net income for Modified Budget A and Modified Budget D. Net income for Modified Budget D is in negative that is -$515. that means he need to earn $515 more to meet Budget D , but income wages are fixed that is $1100.

At last lets see Net income of modified budget A. he is able to save $30 , hence we can say that best fit for his new situation is modified budget A
