Question

Grace is driving to a concert and needs to pay for parking. There is an automatic fee of $11 just to enter the parking lot, and when she leaves the lot, she will have to pay an additional $4 for every hour she had her car in the lot. How much total money would Grace have to pay for parking if she left her car in the lot for 6 hours? How much would Grace have to pay if she left her car in the lot fort hours?

Answer 1

For 6 hours

Grace will pay = $11 + 6 x $4

= $11 + $24

= $35

for t hours

Grace will pay = $11 + t x $4

= $11 + $4t

= $( 11 + 4t )
