Question 622605: Parking in a student lot costs $2 for thr first half hour and $1.25 for each hour thereafter. A partial hour is charged the same as a full hour. What is the longest time that a student can park in this lot for $8? Answer by josmiceli(9645) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The student has $6 left after 1st 1/2 hr
The next 4 hrs cost $5
The student has $1 left which he can't use, so
The longest he can park for is 4 and 1/2 hrs
