Answer:

D. Option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's evaluate each option separately:

Option 1 will cost $120.

Option 2:

Total cost  = Down payment + Weekly payment

                  =@@MATH_TOKEN_0@@

                  =@@MATH_TOKEN_1@@

Therefore, option 2 will cost $155 which is worse compared to option 1.

Option 3:

Total cost  = Down payment + Monthly payment

                  =\(10+5\times24\)

                  =\(130\)

Therefore, option 3 will cost $130 which is worse compared to option 1.

Option 4:

Total cost  = Down payment + Monthly payment

                  =@@MATH_TOKEN_4@@

                  =@@MATH_TOKEN_5@@

Therefore, option 4 will cost $135 which is worse compared to option 1.

So the best option is option 1.

So answer is D. Option 1
