5) A parking lot charges $@ for each hour of portion of an hour, with a maximum charge of $12 for all day. If f(t) equals the total parking bill for t hours, sketch a graph of y =f(t) for 0≤ t ≤ 24. Determine the limits as t -> 3.5 and t -> 4 of f(t), if they exist.

@Mertsj can u help?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Reread your post. How much is charged for part of an hour?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 dollars

OpenStudy (mertsj):

So for t hours, they charge 2t for t less than or equal to 6 because 12 is the maximum charge for the entire day.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (mertsj):

So your graph should show a $2 charge for 0<t<=1, $4 charge for 1<t<=2, $6 charge for 2<t<=3, $8 charge for 3<t<=4, $10 charge for 4<t<=5, $12 charge for 5<t<=6 and for t > 6 a constant charge of $12
