Question

Two plans for reaching a goal are given below.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is C) Both plans will work for achieving the goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Plan A: Save $450 over the next 8 weeks by working 9 hours per week at $7.20 per hour.

For next 8 weeks by working 9 hours per week at $7.20 per hour, you will earn:

$8 \times 9 \times 7.20 = 518.40$

We need to save $450 which is less than $518.40. Thus, plan A will work.

Plan B: Save $450 over the next 6 weeks by working 15 hours per week at $6.50 per hour.

For next 6 weeks by working 15 hours per week at $6.50 per hour, you will earn:

$6 \times 15 \times 6.50 = 585.00$

We need to save $450 which is less than $585.00. Thus, plan B will work.

Hence, the correct option is C) Both plans will work for achieving the goal.
