Answer:

Sushi - 24

Bagels - 36

$84

Explanation:

Before th price increase,

Pieces of sushi Deborah buys = $48 / $2 = 24

Number of bagels Deborah buys = $72 / $2 = 36

If the price of bagels fall to $1 and the amount she would spend on the same quantities of good before the price increase =

($1 × 36) + $48 = $84
