Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Originally, Mei pays $24 for 12 issues.

Therefore, the cost per issue is:

[tex]c=\frac{\$24}{12\text{ issue}}=\$2\text{ per issue}[/tex]

With the coupon, Mei pays the same amount of $24 but for 15 issues.

So, the cost per issue now is:

[tex]c=\frac{\$24}{15\text{ issues}}=\$1.60\text{ per issue}[/tex]

Therefore, the coupon lowered the price of the issue by $0.40.

Our answer is A.

Answer: The coupon lowered the cost per issue by $0.40.

Original price of issue: $2

24 ÷ 12 = 2

Mei added 3 more issues, but she still pays $24.

The answer is A.

Hope this helps you!
