Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Base cost of the survey is defined by the expression

Base cost C = 850 + 4.5x

where x = number of persons surveyed

If the budget to spend on a survey is = $3000

Then Number of person we can survey can be determined by

3000 = 850 + 4.5x

4.5x = 3000 - 850

4.5x = 2150

x = $\frac{2150}{4.5}$

x = 477.78

But the number of persons surveyed can not be in fraction.

Therefore, sample size we can afford is 477.

Option A. is the answer.
