Question

A parking garage charges $5 for the first hour of parking and $1.75 for each additional hour.If y represents the total cost and x represents the total number of hours parked in the garage, which function rule describes this pattern?

a. y=1.75x+5
b. y=1.75(x+1)-5
c. y=1.75(x+1)+5
d. y=1.75(x-1)+5

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

Answer 2

5 no mater what on first hour so, then on the second hour the 1.75 rate kicks in so therefor when x=1, then y=5 so y=5+0 times 1.75
so y=5+1.75 times (x-1)
the naswe ris
y=1.75(x-1)+5 or d
