Question

AAA Taxi charges $1.75 for the first mile and $1.05 for each additional mile. How far could Mrs. Leslie travel for $20 if she tips the cab driver $2.50?

Answer 1

Answer:

She can travel 15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

I first found my answer by adding 1.75 and 2.50 together

giving me 4.25

I then made the equation

4.25+ 1.05x = 20

Subtract 4.25 from both sides that leaves you with

1.05x = 15.75

divide 1.05x on both sides

x= 15 is your solution
