The price of a dozen eggs was $1.63. The price rose m dollars. Then the price dropped $.12 per dozen. Express the current price of eggs after the two price changes. A) m + .51 B) m + 1.51 C) m + 1.63 D) m + 1.75

Verified Answer :

It is B because 1.63-0.12 equals 1.51 and it rose m so it will be M+1.51

we know that

case 1) The price of a dozen eggs was \(\$1.63\)

In this moment the original price of a dozen eggs is \(\$1.63\)

case 2) The price rose \(\$m\)

In this moment the new price of a dozen eggs is \(\$1.63+\$m\)

case 3) The price dropped  \(\$0.12\) per dozen

The final price of a dozen eggs is

\(\$1.63+\$m-\$0.12\)------>\(\$1.51+\$m\)

therefore

the answer is

\(m+1.51\)
