To determine which statement describes the difference in these situations, we need to carefully analyze the information given in the table. The table shows the functions used to determine the number of points earned by regular and elite members based on the amount spent at participating restaurants.
Let's break down the given options:
Option A: Regular members earn 3 more points for every dollar spent and are automatically awarded 100 more points per month than elite members.
Option B: Regular members earn 3 more points for every dollar spent and are automatically awarded 200 more points per month than elite members.
Option C: Elite members earn 3 more points for every dollar spent and are automatically awarded 100 more points per month than regular members.
Option D: Elite members earn 3 more points for every dollar spent and are automatically awarded 200 more points per month than regular members.
To determine the correct statement, we should start by focusing on the first part of the statement, which is about earning points.
From the options, it is clear that both regular and elite members earn 3 more points for every dollar spent, regardless of the option.
Next, let's consider the second part of the statement, which is about the additional points awarded automatically per month.
Option A states that regular members are awarded 100 more points per month than elite members.
Option B states that regular members are awarded 200 more points per month than elite members.
Option C states that elite members are awarded 100 more points per month than regular members.
Option D states that elite members are awarded 200 more points per month than regular members.
Now, we need to determine which statement is consistent with the information given in the question.
The question does not provide any specific amounts for the additional points awarded to either regular or elite members. Therefore, we cannot determine whether it is 100 or 200 points more. Based on this, we can conclude that both options A and B are inconsistent with the given information.
On the other hand, options C and D state that elite members are awarded more points per month than regular members. However, since the question does not specify the exact amount, we cannot determine whether it is 100 or 200 points.
Therefore, the correct answer is that the given information does not allow us to determine whether regular or elite members are awarded more additional points per month.
