Taking successive discounts of 15% off and then 25% off is the same as taking a one time discount of 40%.

select the best answer from the choices provided

t

f

correct option is F

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose there is a book the cost of which is $100

You got  successive discounts of 15% off and then 25% off

So after getting 15% discount cost of book=$85

again on $85 there is a discount of 25%

it means

25% discount on $85=

=$21.25

It means after successive discounts of 15% off and then 25% off cost of book=

after successive discounts of 15% off and then 25% off cost of book=$63.75

On the other hand if you got 40% discount on the same book which costs $100

then after discount of 40% its cost will be=$60

It means,Taking successive discounts of 15% off and then 25% off is not same as taking a one time discount of 40%.

Therefore correct option is F

x -

median = 1.25

range = 12-14.5

interquartile = q12-q14.5

y -

median = 1

range = 15-17

interquartile = q15-q17
