Welcome to Week 8 Tutorial 7 of the course "Mathematics for Data Science I" by Profs. Neelesh Upadhye, Madhavan Mukund. Full Course: https://study.iitm.ac.in/ds/course_pages/BSMA1001.html Video Overview This tutorial explores a problem involving discounts at a shop, where Rohan (age 22) and his friend (age 25) need to minimize the amount payable. The shop offers two types of discounts: a percentage discount based on age and a flat discount on Sundays. We analyze different ways of applying these offers, compare the results, and determine the minimum amount Rohan has to pay. The solution highlights key mathematical ideas like optimization, quadratic analysis, and conditions for finding the best outcome.
