Answer 2

Answer:

B. The value of y can be negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of y can be negative, which means the beekeeper wasn't able to sell a lot of jars that could compensate the amount he paid for the booth. It also means he didn't have any profit, rather, he incurred a loss.

For example, if the beekeeper sold only 5 jars of honey, the solution will look like this:

Let x be the number of jars of honey the beekeeper sold.

• y = 5x - 30
• y = 5(5) - 30
• y = 25 - 30
• y = -5

This means that the beekeeper has a loss of $5.
