There is an automatic feeof $8 just to enter the parking lot, and when he leaves the lot, he will have to pay anadditional $3 for every hour he had his car in the lot. How much total money wouldNolan have to pay for parking if he left his car in the lot for 6 hours? How muchwould Nolan have to pay if he left his car in the lot for t hours?

Answer 1

The entry fee is $8

The aditiobnal fee is $3 for every hour.

So, if he left his car in the lot for t hours, the total cost will be,

`T=8+3t`

Therefore, if he left his car in the lot for 6 hours, the cost will be,

`T=8+(3*6)=26`

Thus the total cost is $26
