<span>The parking meter charges $2 per hour, means that each half hour costs $1.
Thus, 1$ pays for half an hour, so d $ pay for d half hours, that is d/2 hours, which is 0.5d hours.
15 minutes a quarter of an hour, which is 0.25 h.
Thus, the driver has a total of d/2 hours that she payed for, + 1/4 hour from the previous driver. These make a total of 3 hours, so we can set the equation:
3=0.5d+0.25
Answer: B</span>

Answer: Choice C</h3>
================================================
Work Shown:
Reference angle = P
Opposite side = QR = 8.5
Adjacent side = QP = 16
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(P) = QR/QP
tan(P) = 8.5/16
tan(P) = 0.53125
tan(P) = 0.53
It is less.
1/3= 0.33
1/2=0.50
So i think its $4.35.
Step-by-step explanation:
I did addition to find out this answer my calculations seem to be correct.
$3.85 + 50 cents = 4 dollars and 35 cents
