The value of the lesser integer is 28
Given that a<span>
local RadioShack store wants to buy a new line of plasma TVs.
Manufacturer A offers chain discounts of 18/12, and Manufacturer B
offers terms of 17/13.
Let the list price of the plasma TVs be x, then after a chain discount of 18/12 by Manufacturer A, the selling price of the plasma TVs will be (1 - 0.18)(1 - 0.12)x = 0.82(0.88)x = 0.7216x
Also, after the discount of 17/13 by manufacturer B, the selling price of the plasma TVs will be (1 - 0.17)(1 - 0.13)x = 0.83(0.87)x = 0.7221x
Thus, the final selling price after discount by manufacturer A is 0.7216 and the final selling price after dscount by manufacturer B is 0.7221x.
Therefore, Manufacturer A offers a </span><span>single equivalent discount rate that is the best deal.</span>
Answer:
Yes, the total cost of Lacey lesson is a split function of hours scheduled
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount Lacey pays for each hour of golf = $15
The amount Lacey pays for equipment rental = $10
The amount Lacy pays for equipment rental for a 3 hours long lesson = $5
Therefore, we have
Let C represent the total cost of Lacey lesson and let t represent the number of hours, we have;
C = $10 + t × $15 for 0 ≤ t ≤ 3
C = $5 + t × $15 for t > 3
Therefore, the total cost of Lacey lesson is a split function of hours scheduled
