One manufacturer boxes screws so that each box weighs the same no matter what size the screws are. The graph shows the amount of allowed weight remaining in a given shipment depending on the number of boxes of screws already included.

the minimum weight of a single box of screws

Because x is the number of boxes in the shipment, we conclude that the correct option is "the maximum weight allowed in a shipment"

What does the y-intercept mean in this case?

Remember that for a function f(x), the y-intercept is given by f(0).

In this case, the graph represents the amount of allowed weight remaining in a shipment depending on the number of boxes of screws included.

Then the variable x represents "the number of boxes of screws in the shipment".

So when x = 0, there are no boxes.

Then the y-intercepts represents the remaining weight when there are no boxes of screws, which would be all the allowed weight on the shipment.

The correct option is:

"the maximum weight allowed in a shipment"
