Answer:
The charges will be the same after 4 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Amount = y
Number of hours = x for x > 2
Garage A: y = $7.00 + (x - 2)*3
Garage B: y = 3.25*x
Part 3: What is the cost to be equal?
3.25x = 7 + 3(x - 2) Remove the brackets
3.25x = 7 + 3x - 6 Collect terms on the right
3.25x = 3x + 1 Subtract 3x from both sides.
3.25x - 3x = 3x - 3x + 1 Combine
0.25x = 1 Divide by 0.25
0.25 x/0.25 = 1 / 0.25
x = 4 hours.
Easy peasy, this is a representation of differnce of 2 perfect squares
a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)
Y= -7/15
Hope this is good enough :D
