    (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.
