Tiana's checking account charges a $7.75 monthly service fee and a $0.16 per-check fee. If Tiana writes 17 checks per month, should she switch to a checking account that charges a $10.50 monthly service fee and no per-check fee? A. No, because her monthly fees are currently less than $10.50. B. No, because her monthly fees are currently greater than $10.50. C. Yes, because her monthly fees are currently greater than $10.50. D. Yes, because her monthly fees are currently less than $10.50. @ganeshie8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk i thought thats what you meant

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

in real, nobody wants to pay more. we bargain everywhere, so when I am paying 10.47 now, why i would want to switch to a new plan which charges me more ?
