Akinny

Answer:

(D) The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Bart  wholesale cost = y

Annie's wholesale cost   = 150% of y

                                         = 1.5y

Annie's retail price =  115% of 1.5y

                               =   1.725‬y

Bart's retail price   =285%  of y

                              = 2.85y

Since we only have cost price   and retail price information for both  Bart and Annie, the quantity  relationships for both sellers cannot be determined from the given information.
