Potatoes cost Janice $1.25 per pound, and she has $5.00 that she could possibly spend on potatoes or other items. Suppose she feels that the first pound of potatoes is worth $1.50, the second pound is worth $1.14, the third pound is worth $1.05, and all subsequent pounds are worth $0.30. How many pounds of potatoes will she purchase? What if she only had $2 to spend?

a. 1 pound of potatoes

b. 1 pound of potatoes

Explanation:

It is important to note that Janice will purchase potatoes until the cost of potatoes is more than her value for it or until she exhausts her income.

Having that in mind

a. In this case, since only the value of first pound of potato is worth more than the cost, she'd only buy 1 pound of potatoes. Totalled at $1.25

b. If she has only $2, she'd purchase only 1 pound because the value of the potatoes is worth more than the cost.

no, a company likes to look at potential employees that are professional, well mannered, clean, honest, etc. don't show up looking/acting like a clown. (unless that's your job xd) hope this ! =^-^=
