No, you're not missing a thing- the OA must be wrong. Where's the question from?

This is from an old paper based GMAT - I guess the OA is wrong.

Given that 1≤ s ≤ 5.

Putting s = 1 in p = 9.50 + 0.25 (s - 1) gives p (1) = $9.50 and s = 5 in p = 9.50 + 0.25 (s - 1) gives p (5) = $10.50, such that,

p (5) minus p (1) = $1.00.

My B

i think there is no way the answer can be C

Can someone take a firm stand on this?
