Answer: 0.0160768

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the marked price of the cosmetic be 100.

From the question,

Walgreens is offered a chain discount on cosmetics from Libby Corp. of 8%, 5% and 2%. The selling price of the cosmetic after the chain discount will be:

100 × (1 - 8/100) × (1 - 5/100) × (1 - 2/100)

= 100 × (1 - 0.08) × (1 - 0.05) × (1 - 0.02)

= 85.652

Discount = Marked price - Selling price

Discount = 100 - 85.652

Discount = 14.348

Discount percent = 14.348% = 0.14348

Roma Company offers a chain discount of 7%, 6% and 4%.

The selling price of the cosmetic after the chain discount will be:

100 × (1 - 7/100) × (1 - 6/100) × (1 - 4/100)

= 100 × (1 - 0.07) × (1 - 0.06) × (1 - 0.04)

= 83.9232

Discount = Marked price - Selling price

Discount = 100 - 83.9232

Discount = 16.0768

Discount percent = 16.0768% = 0.0160768

The highest discount offered is 0.0160768.

Suppose f(x) is a function such that if p < q, f(p) < f(q). Which statement best describes f(x)?
quester [9]

Answer:

option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given that for any p<q

f(p)<f(q)

this clearly implies that f is an increasing function.

Now we know that if f is an increasing function then -f is always an decreasing function and vice-versa.

so here -f(x) will be an decreasing function.

Let us consider a example f(x)=x then f(x) is clearly an increasing function.

and -f(x)= -x is an decreasing function. also it is an odd function but not an even function.

so option B holds.
