(15,0) @alones

OpenStudy (liv1234):

It could be either A, B, or D, I got $300 for all of them, wait! I should show you the graph, I totally forgot about it!

Lol alright.

OpenStudy (liv1234):

okay, so how do I use the graph to solve?

OpenStudy (liv1234):

I feel like it would be option B because that's the most amount of items he can buy without going over $300

alones (alones):

I was thinking of B also. But I'm not sure.
