D. $9

Answer 1

B. $10

Explanation:

Camila's employer pays 90% of the total cost of her family's health insurance

plan

Therefore, Camilla pays only 10%

If the total cost of the plan increases from $850 per month to $950 per month, how much more will Camilla have to pay

each month?

Amount of health insurance Camilla pays at $850 per month = 10% of $850

= 0.1 * $850

= $85

Amount of health insurance Camilla pays at $950 per month = 10% of $950

= 0.1 * $950

= $95

Amount Camilla pays more = $95 - $85

= $10

B. $10
