The feasible solution in this case would be to ask Janet to choose a different time for practicing aerobics. This solution does not involve any exchange of money and allows both tenants to have their preferred activities without disturbing each other's peace. Therefore, option A is the best choice. Option B may appear to be a solution but it involves an exchange of money which may not be acceptable to either tenant. Option C is not a feasible solution as Janet's value for aerobic exercise is less than Jeanie's value for piano practice, and paying a higher amount to change the time may not be acceptable to Janet. Option D is not a feasible solution as it involves an exchange of money and may not be acceptable to Jeanie.
