Respuesta :

0.9(P - 15) + 0.05P[0.9(P - 15)] + 0.05P
0.9(P - 15)(1 + 0.05P) + 0.05P
From this, we can see that there is a 10% discount indicated by multiplication by 0.9 and a flat discount of $15 from (P - 15)
However, the last term indicates that the delivery cost is 5% that of the original price.
