B. $16.85

C. $3.35

D. $2.81

Respuesta :

1.25+(39*.04) = $2.81

Answer:

D. $2.81

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement says that the price of a cantaloupe goes up 4 cents each month and that the cost of the cantaloupe was $1.25 on the first month. Tto determine the cost in the 40th month, you have to multiply 4 cents for 39 months as the price for the first month was given and then you have to add this with the price for the first month:

0,04*39= 1.56

1.56+1.25= $2.81

The price in the 40th month is $2.81.
