Question

A parking garage allows users to park the first hour free and then charges $2.50 for each additional hour or fraction of an hour. Which equation represents this situation?

Answer 1

Answer:

An equation that could be used to represent this equation is:

y = 2.5x - 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of hours

y = the amount that the user has to pay

You have to multiply the number of hours by $2.50. Then subtract $2.50 from that amount for the first hour that is the parking garage allows the user to park for free.
