Each straw is  4-1/8 inches long.
You have one gigantic piece of straw material, 123-3/4 inches long.
How many straws can you cut it up to make ?
 ===>                    (123-3/4)  divided by  (4-1/8)            straws.
Each one costs  $0.015  to make.
So, once you find the number of short straws you have,
multiply
===>                 (the number of short straws) x ($0.015) .
That'll tell you how much it costs to make all of them.  
Now you know how to do it on your own.
If you don't get  30 straws  and  $0.45 , please try again.
        
             
        
        
        
The correct answer is C, x is greater than -5. In order to solve this, you have to solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation. Then you have to isolate the variable. Hope this helped!
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
y=1/7.50x+40
Step-by-step explanation:
I doubled checked myself on desmos and it worked. You start at 40$ because you pay that no matter what. For each one they buy the price goes up by 7.50$. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
12.50 x 8 = 100
100 x 3 = $300
so $275 for 3 months would be the better deal but i’m not sure if by each month u meant 3 months or the whole year. if the whole year was the case it would be
12.50 x 8 = 100
100 x 12 = $1,200
275 x 4 = $1,100
so in that case $275 for 3 months would still be the better deal.
