Final answer:
The advertisement cost for the Duke Ellington Company is $16, which is equal to $2000.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the advertisement cost for the Duke Ellington Company, we need to calculate the total cost for each type of ad and then add them together. The cost of a 3/5 page ad is 3/5 times the cost of a full page ad, which is one unit. So the cost of a 3/5 page ad is 3/5 of the cost of a full page ad. Similarly, the cost of a 2/5 page ad is 2/5 times the cost of a full page ad. Now, let's assign a value to the full page ad, say $x.
Therefore, the cost of a 3/5 page ad is (3/5)x and the cost of a 2/5 page ad is (2/5)x. The total advertisement cost is then (3/5)x + (3/5)x + (3/5)x + (2/5)x + x = (9/5)x + (2/5)x + x = (16/5)x.
Since the cost of the full page ad on Sunday is the same as a full page ad, we can write:
(16/5)x = x
Simplifying this equation, we get 16x/5 = x
By cross-multiplying, we have 16x = 5x
Dividing both sides of the equation by x, we get 16/5 = 1
Therefore, x = 5
Plugging this value back in to the equation for the total advertisement cost, we have:
(16/5)(5) = 16
The advertisement cost for the Duke Ellington Company is $16. Therefore, the correct answer is d) $2000.
