Maria has a job at the local store and earns $5 per hour. She spends one-third of each paycheck on books. If y represents the number of hours she works in a pay period , which expression represents the amount in dollars that she spends on books in each pay period?

A.) 3 times 5y

B.) 5/y times 3

C.) 5y/3

D.) 5y - 3

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the number of hours Maria works in a pay period.

Maria earns $5 per hour, then Maria earns

in y hours.

She spends one-third of each paycheck on books. One-third of is

the correct answer is option c.   3

step-by-step explanation:

points to remember

equation of the line with coordinates (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by,

slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

from the figure we can see a line with two coordinates given

to find the slope of given line

here   (x₁, y₁)   = (-1, -1 ) and (x₂, y₂) = (1, 5)

slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

  = (5 - -1)/(1 - -1)

  = (5 + 1)/(1 + 1)

  = 6/2 = 3

therefore the correct answer is option c.   3

answer: 0.64
