Not a previously graded question. Suppose that Ciana is deciding whether or not to buy a pair of sandals that she has been researching online, and also the best place to make her purchase. Three different stores in the area sell the sandals she likes, but some stores are more convenient for Ciana to reach than others. One option is her local shoe store located only 15 minutes away from where she works, where they charge a marked-up price of $122 for the sandals: Ciana earns an hourly wage of $26 at her job.

Assume that Ciana’s travel time is the same each way (to and from the store) and that it will take her
