The price the school district pays for each typewriter is $106.56.

<h3>What is the price for each typewriter?</h3>

A quantity discount is the discount given for bulk purchases. It reduces the purchase price of a good or service.

Total purchase price of the typewriters before the discount = (50 x 129.95) = 6,497.50

Total purchase price of the typewriters after the discount = (100 - 18) x 6,497.50

= $5,327.95

Purchase price of one typewriter = $5,327.95 / 50 = $106.56
