Q. A software distributor charges $41 per license of a particular utility. The distributor offers a 10% discount on each license after the first 20. How much would a business pay to buy 40 licenses of the utility, in dollars?□
Calculate Full Price Cost: First 20 licenses are at full price, so calculate the cost for those.20×($41)=($820)
Calculate Discounted Price: The remaining 20 licenses get a 10% discount, so find the discounted price per license.$(41)×0.10=$(4.1)Discounted price per license = $(41)−$(4.1)=$(36.9)
Calculate Cost for Discounted Licenses: Now calculate the cost for the 20 discounted licenses. 20×($36.9)=($738)
Calculate Total Cost: Add the cost of the first 20 licenses to the cost of the 20 discounted licenses to get the total cost.$820+738 = $\(1558\)
