Answer:
The time for which parking charge taken is 3.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The total cost paid by Merry for car parking = $2.20
The charge taken by garage for parking is as ( $0.45 ) +( $0.25 for each half hour)
Let the Time taken as half hour = x
So, According to question
0.45 + 0.25 × x = $2.20
Or, 0.25 × x = $2.20 - $0.45
I.e 0.25 × x = $ 1.75
∴ x = $ ([tex]\frac{1.75}{0.25}[/tex] = 7
So,Total time spend = [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex] = 3.5 hours
Hence The time for which parking charge taken is 3.5 hours Answer
