C. Maria should choose to travel by train as it saves her $10.
D. Mana should choose to drive as t saves her $10

None of the options are correct

Explanation:

The train would cost her, which is computed as:

= Cost + (Hours × Opportunity Cost)

= $400 + (4 hours × $15 per hour)

= $400 + $60

= $460

The driving would cost her, which is computed as:

= Cost + (Hours × Opportunity Cost)

= $250 + (6 hours × $15 per hour)

= $250 + $90

= $340

Savings = Train Cost - Driving Cost

= $460 - $340

=$120

None of the options are correct as the she would save $120.
