Jillian spent $31 to park for 6 hours. The parking garage charges a base rate of $3 for the first two 2 hours, and then an hourly rate for each additional hour. How much does each additional hour of parking cost?(1 point) Responses $8.50 $8.50 $5.17 $5.17 $4.67 $4.67 $7.00
To find out how much each additional hour of parking costs, we need to subtract the cost of the first 2 hours from the total cost.
The cost for the first 2 hours is $3 per hour, so it is 2 * $3 = $<<2*3=6>>6.
Therefore, the cost for the additional 4 hours is $31 - $6 = $<<31-6=25>>25.
Each additional hour costs $25 / 4 = $<<25/4=6.25>>6.25.
So, the answer is $6.25.
To find out how much each additional hour of parking costs, we need to calculate the total cost of parking for the first 2 hours, and then subtract it from the total cost of parking for 6 hours.
The cost for the first 2 hours is $3 since that is the base rate.
So the cost for the additional 4 hours is $31 - $3 = $28.
To find out the cost per hour, we divide the total cost for the additional hours by the number of additional hours:
$28 / 4 hours = $7.
Therefore, each additional hour of parking costs $7.
To find out how much each additional hour of parking costs, we need to determine the cost for the first two hours, and then subtract that from the total cost for six hours.
The base rate for the first two hours is $3. This means that Jillian spent $3 for the first two hours of parking.
To find out how much Jillian spent on additional hours, we subtract the cost for the first two hours from the total cost for six hours:
Total cost for six hours - Cost for first two hours = Cost for additional hours
$31 - $3 = $28
Now, we need to calculate how many additional hours Jillian parked for. Since she parked for a total of six hours, and the base rate covers the first two hours, she parked for an additional four hours.
To find out how much each additional hour costs, we divide the cost for additional hours by the number of additional hours:
$28 / 4 = $7.00
Therefore, each additional hour of parking costs $7.00.
