Answer 1

To find the cost of each additional hour of parking, we need to subtract the base rate from the total cost and then divide by the additional hours.

The base rate is $3 for the first 2 hours, so the cost of the additional 4 hours is $31 - $3 = $<<31-3=28>>28.
To find the cost of each additional hour, we divide $28 by 4, which is $28/4 = $<<28/4=7>>7.

Therefore, each additional hour of parking costs $7. The correct answer is $7.00.

Answer 2

To find out how much each additional hour of parking costs, we need to subtract the cost of the first 2 hours from the total cost and then divide it by the number of additional hours.

The base rate for the first 2 hours is $3. So, the cost of the additional 4 hours is $31 - $3 = $28.

To find out how much each additional hour costs, we divide the cost of the additional hours by the number of additional hours:

$28 / 4 = $7.00

Therefore, each additional hour of parking costs $7.00.

The correct answer is: $7.00.

Answer 3

To find out how much each additional hour of parking costs, we first need to determine how much Jillian paid for the first two hours. We know that the base rate for the first two hours is $3 per hour, so we multiply that by 2:

$3/hour * 2 hours = $6.

Next, we subtract the amount Jillian paid for the first two hours from the total amount she spent on parking:

$31 - $6 = $25.

Now we know that $25 represents the cost of parking for the additional hours. Jillian parked for 6 hours in total, so the number of additional hours would be 6 - 2 (the first two hours) = 4 additional hours.

To find out how much each additional hour of parking costs, we divide the cost of the additional hours by the number of additional hours:

$25 / 4 hours = $6.25.

Therefore, each additional hour of parking costs $6.25.

None of the given options matches this result, so none of them is correct.
