Answer:

Lot A is cheaper to stay in for 3 days and Lot B is cheaper for 8 days

Step-by-step explanation: Part A is Lot A because $9 a day for 3 days is $27+$3 dollar entry fee is 30 dollars for 3 days.

Part B: Lot B is better here because instead of paying $75 for 8 days, you pay $58.

Part C: $3.00 + 9.00x and 10.00 + 6.00x

Parking lot A equation- $3.00 + $9.00x
Parking lot B equation- $10.00 + $6.00x

Part A- For 3 days parking lot B would be the better option- $28

Part B- For 8 days parking lot B would also be the better option- $58
