Answer:the total discounted cost for your stay is $1948.2

Explanation:

If you book your room six months in advance, you will save 15% off the price of the room. You decide to take advantage of the offer and book a room for 6 nights. If the original price per night for the room is $382, this means that the value of the discount would be

15/100 × 382 = 0.15 × 382 = $57.3

The cost of the room for a night would be

382 - 57.3 = $324.7

Since you are staying for six nights,

the total discounted cost for your stay would be

324.7 × 6 = $1948.2
