A parking garage charges ​$1.25 for the first hour and ​$0.50 for each additional hour. If a customer gave the parking attendant ​$15 for parking from 10 A. M. to 3 P. M.​, how much did the garage​ charge?

The garage charged $3.25 for the parking.

Step-by-step explanation: 10am-3pm is equivalent to 5 hours. For hour number one the cost was $1.25. If you take the continuing 4 hours after the original $1.25, it is .50 for each one. Meaning it is $2.00 for the 4 hours after the original $1.25. So 1.25+2.00= 3.25.

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
