We are given the cost of the product along with the markup percentage.  The markup is how the store makes a profit.  To figure out the markup price, simply multiply the "cost to store" by 100% plus the markup percent.

So the markup prices per store is:

A = 162 * 1.4 = $226.80
B = 155 * 1.3 = $201.50
C = 160 * 1.25 = $200.00

Clearly, the best deal is store C.  So in order to choose store A, we want to pay less than the price of Store C, $200.  So if Store A cost $199.99, then we would purchase there instead of Store C.

Therefore, $226.80 - $199.99 = $26.81
If Store A offered a discount of $26.81, we would purchase from Store A.

$26.81/$226.80 = 0.1182

So we would need a discount of 11.82% from Store A.

Which of the following choices is the simple formula for the nth term of the following arithmetic sequence?
VladimirAG [237]
First, we start off with the nth term formula for an arithmetic sequence, which is 
a_{n} =a_{1}+(n-1)d

plug in the sequence numbers where they belong

a_{n}=5+(n-1)*(-4)

a_{n}=5+(-4n+4)
a_{n}=5-4n+4
a_{n}=-4n+9

And this is the final answer
-4n+9
