单选题
Judy plans to visit the National Gallery once each month in 2012 except in July and August when she plans to go three times each. A single admission costs $3.50, a pass valid for unlimited visits in any 3-month period can be purchased for $18, and an annual pass costs $60.00. What is the least amount, in dollars, that Judy can spend for her intended number of visits?
【正确答案】
1、49.50
【答案解析】Judy intends to go to the Gallery 16 times during the year. Buying a single admission each time would cost 16 × $3.50 = $56, which is less than the annual pass. If she bought a 3-month pass for June, July, and August, she would pay $18 plus $31.50 for 9 single admissions (9 × $3.50), for a total expense of $49.50, which is the least expensive option.
