for first 2000 metres he does not get any discount
amount = 2*2000 = $4000
for next 1500 metres he gets 5% discount
amount = 2*1500 - (1/20)*3000 = $2850
for the nest 1000 metres he gets 7% discount
amount = 2*1000 - 7*20 = $1860
total amount = $4000 + $2850 + $1860 = $8710
amount = 2*2000 = $4000
for next 1500 metres he gets 5% discount
amount = 2*1500 - (1/20)*3000 = $2850
for the nest 1000 metres he gets 7% discount
amount = 2*1000 - 7*20 = $1860
total amount = $4000 + $2850 + $1860 = $8710

How do we know the rates are not cumulative?
Discounts:
1. After the 1st 2,000 mts, discounted $ = (4,500-2,000)*0.07
2. After the next 1,500 mts, discounted $ = (4,500-2,000-1,500)*0.05
total cost = (4,500*2)-(Discounts)=9,000 - 285 = 9715
Not an option and I have lost time so I went for fluke!
