To find the total amount Shayla paid, you need to add the fare and the tip amount.
The tip amount is 15% of the fare, which can be found by multiplying the fare by 0.15:
$28.50 * 0.15 = $4.275.
Now, add the fare and the tip:
$28.50 + $4.275 = $32.775.
The total amount Shayla paid is $32.775.
Rounded to the nearest cent, the total amount Shayla paid is $32.78.
So, the correct answer is D) $32.78.
