To find the price offered by the travel agent after applying a 17% discount, we can use the following steps:
1. Calculate the discount amount:
\[ \text{Discount amount} = \text{Brochure price} \times \left( \frac{\text{Discount percentage}}{100} \right) \]
\[ \text{Discount amount} = 7950 \times \left( \frac{17}{100} \right) \]
\[ \text{Discount amount} = 7950 \times 0.17 \]
\[ \text{Discount amount} = 1351.5 \]
2. Subtract the discount amount from the brochure price to find the price offered by the travel agent:
\[ \text{Price offered} = \text{Brochure price} - \text{Discount amount} \]
\[ \text{Price offered} = 7950 - 1351.5 \]
\[ \text{Price offered} = 6598.5 \]
So, the price being offered by the travel agent after a 17% discount is GHS 6,598.50.
