Answer :

To determine the order of the items from most expensive to least expensive after applying their respective markdowns and markups, let’s calculate the final prices for each item:

1. Blender:
- Base Price: \$29.73
- Markdown: 9%
- Final Price: \$27.0543

2. Hat:
- Base Price: \$14.16
- Markup: 77%
- Final Price: \$25.0632

3. Ink:
- Base Price: \$20.17
- Markup: 27%
- Final Price: \$25.6159

4. Heater:
- Base Price: \$28.46
- Markdown: 22%
- Final Price: \$22.1988

Now, we arrange these items in descending order based on their final prices:

- Blender: \$27.0543
- Ink: \$25.6159
- Hat: \$25.0632
- Heater: \$22.1988

Thus, the correct order from most expensive to least expensive is:

Blender, Ink, Hat, Heater
