Answer:

C. She paid $30 for the table.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 35x+ 30

This is in slope intercept form

y =mx+b

where m is the slope, which tells us the change

and b is the y intercept, which tells us how much the initial value was (when x=0)

Since x is the number of chairs, and letting x=0

y= 0 chairs +30

Since y= cost of the chairs and the table

y= 30, which is the cost of the table since we bought 0 chairs
