Solution: Total number of pages = 150

Revised once: 50

Revised twice: 25

Remaining: 150 – (50 + 25) = 75

=> Rate for first typing: $8

=> Rate for first revised: $4

Rate for second revised: $4 + $4 = $8

Total cost = (75 * 8) + (50 * 4) + (25 * 8) = 600 + 200 + 200 = $1,000

Therefore, C is the correct answer.

Answer C
