Let’s check out your problem:

A single processor takes $20$ milliseconds $(\text{ms})$ to prepare data entries and $0.1n$ ms to copy the entries, where $n$ is the number of entries. A multiprocessor takes $70$ ms to prepare and copy one data entry, and whenever the number of entries is doubled the amount of time to prepare and copy them increases by $5$ ms. Given $120$ ms to prepare and copy data entries, which processor type can prepare and copy more entries and how many more entries can it prepare and copy? Choose $1$ answer: $\newline$(A) The single processor can prepare and copy $176$ more entries. $\newline$(B) The single processor can prepare and copy $989$ more entries. $\newline$(C) The multiprocessor can prepare and copy $(\text{ms})$$0$ more entries. $\newline$(D) The multiprocessor can prepare and copy $(\text{ms})$$1$ more entries.
