she will have to pay an additional $2 for every hour she had her car in the lot.
How much total money would Mackenzie have to pay for parking if she left

left her car in the lot for t hours?

step-by-step explanation:

i could only see the first page. the other pages were blurry. ; -;

x hot dogs for 2$, y drinks for 3$. 29 items and total 70

2x+3y=70

x+y=29

if x=17and y=12

2(17)+3(12)=70

34+36=70

i don't even know man. edge inuity be messing with us. i had to ask a question too.
