Answer

A participant registering as a student on August 15, 2026, is eligible for a maximum discount of 15%.
The correct option is correct because registering on August 15 is prior to the early-bird deadline of September 1, making the 15% discount available. Since discounts cannot be combined, the student chooses the higher discount of 15% over the 10% student discount.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the registration date and applicable discounts.
August 15 is before the September 1 early-bird deadline, qualifying the participant for the 15% discount. As a student, they also qualify for a 10% discount.
To determine which discount conditions apply based on the timeline.
2
Evaluate the discount combination rule.
The flyer states that discounts cannot be combined. Therefore, the participant must choose either the 15% early-bird discount or the 10% student discount.
To identify constraints on combining promotional offers.
3
Determine the maximum discount possible.
The maximum discount available is 15% by choosing the early-bird offer.
To compare the values of the available individual discounts.
