<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:
a.
k= 5/22
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 = 2/3 the entire box
Half of 2/3 is 1/3, and 2/3 + 1/3 = 1
So find half of 5/8 and add it to 5/8.
5/8 * 1/2 = 5/16
5/8 + 5/16
Change 5/8 to a fraction with a denominator of 16:
10/16 + 5/16 = 15/16
So the original weight is 15/16 pounds.
