The parking cost at a garage is c=1.3(h-1) , where h is the number of hours you park and C is the cost in dollars. When is the cost of parking $10
1.3(h-1) = 10
h-1 = 10/1.3
h = 10/1.3 + 1 or appr 8.69 hrs
or appr 8 hrs and 41.5 minutes
To find out when the cost of parking is $10, we need to solve the equation c=10, where c represents the cost in dollars.
Given that the cost function is c=1.3(h-1), we can substitute c with 10 in the equation:
10 = 1.3(h-1)
To solve for h, we can simplify the equation:
10 = 1.3h - 1.3
Adding 1.3 to both sides:
10 + 1.3 = 1.3h
11.3 = 1.3h
Finally, divide both sides by 1.3:
11.3 ÷ 1.3 = h
Therefore, the cost of parking will be $10 when you park for approximately 8.6923 hours (rounded to the nearest decimal place).
