2. A store allows customers to fill their own bags of candy. Glen decides he only wants caramels and candy corn. Caramels sell for $0.95 per pound, and candy corn sells for $0.79 per pound. Glen’s bag weighs 1.7 pounds and it costs $1.48.

If p = pounds of caramels, which equation in simplest form represents the situation described.

(Points : 1)
–0.16p + 1.62 = 1.48
–0.16p + 1.62= 1.7
0.16p + 1.34 = 1.48
0.16p + 1.34 = 1.7

4. Melania has two jobs. During the day, she works as an office clerk, and in the evening she works as a cashier. Her office job pays her $13 per hour, and her cashier job pays her $9.25 per hour. In one week, Melania worked 38 hours, and she earned a total of $434.

If c represents the number of hours that Melania works as an office clerk, write an equation that can be used to find how many hours Melania worked in both jobs.
(Points : 1)
13c + 9.25(c – 38) = 434
13c + 9.25(38 – c) = 434
13c + 9.25(434 – c) = 38
9.25c + 13(38 – c) = 434
