Answer:

B) $27.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression for Maria's charge is given as:


0.75x+0.25y

Given that:

• The number of inches, x = 16

,

• The number of beads, y = 60

The amount Maria will charge is:


\begin{gathered} =0.75(16)+0.25(60) \\ =12+15 \\ =\$27 \end{gathered}

Maria will charge $27 for a necklace 16 inches long with 60 beads.
