Question

Paloma is visiting a new city on vacation. She plans to rent a Segway to tour the downtown area. The rental service charges $25 for the first half hour and $5.25 for each half hour after that. How much will it cost for Paloma to use the Segway for 8 hours?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$103.75 for 8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

8hr * 60min = 480min (for the total trip)

480min / 30min = 16 (30 minute intervals in her trip)

If the first half hour is a $25 dollar charge then,

$25 * 1 + $5.25 * 15 = $103.75 (for 8 hours)

Answer 2

103.75 is the final answer, that SHOULD be the correct answer!
