Answer 1

To determine the least expensive subscription plan on a per-year basis, we'll calculate the unit price for each of the plans.

1. One Year Plan:

   • Cost: $24.97
   • Unit Price per year: \( \frac{24.97}{1} = 24.97 \)

2. Two Year Plan:

   • Cost: $45.94
   • Unit Price per year: \( \frac{45.94}{2} = 22.97 \)

3. Three Year Plan:

   • Cost: $74.91
   • Unit Price per year: \( \frac{74.91}{3} = 24.97 \)

Now, let's summarize the unit prices:

• One Year Plan: $24.97 per year
• Two Year Plan: $22.97 per year
• Three Year Plan: $24.97 per year

The least expensive subscription per year is the two-year plan, which costs $22.97 per year.
