    D. 102.2

    Explanation:

    Using a simultaneous equation

    Since the year is constant

    We will use the the basis and municipal bond as our variables

    So equation 1 = 7x+5y=104

    Eqn ii = 6x + 5y = 101

    Using eliminating method

    X=3

    Substitute for x in equation 1 to get the value of y

    7 (3) + 5y=104

    5y=104-21

    Y=16.6

    To get the price for the percent of 6.40 at 5% basis substitute for the value of X and Y respectively in the both equation

    6.4x+5y=?

    6.4 (3) + 5 (16.6) =

    19.2+83=102.2
