Let x represent the regular price of a book. 1. Give a function f that represents the price of the book if a P100 price reduction applies. 2. Give a function g that represents the price of the book if a 10% discount applies. 3. Compute (fog)(x) and (gof)(x). Describe what these mean. Which of these give a better deal for the customer?
