Use the following information to answer questions 27-29.
Kojo has an Internet site where his classmates can sell items in online auctions. For each item, a student pays Kojo a listing fee, based on the item's starting price, and a selling fee calculated as a percent of the selling price, as shown in the tables below.
28. For the items his classmates listed on his site last Friday, Kojo was paid listing fees that totaled $5.75. What is the maximum number of the items listed last Friday whose starting prices could have been in the range of $5.00- $19.99?
Your Answer is
Correct Answer is F
Explanation
The list fee corresponding to the starting price of $5.00-$19.99 is $0.5, and a total of $5.75 is received, so the number of items sold is 5.75/0.5=11.5, but the number of items cannot be decimals, so the maximum number of items sold is 11 pieces ( If there are 12 pieces, the list fee will exceed $5.75), so choose F
