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.
