Answer:
tim has an after school delivery service that he provides for several small retailers in town. he uses his bicycle and charges $1.25 for a delivery made within 1 1/2 miles, $1.70 for a delivery of at least 1 1/2 miles but less than 1 3/4 miles. $2.15 for a delivery of at least 1 3/4 miles but less than 2 miles, and so on. if tim raised his rates by 10%, what would he be paid to deliver a package 3 1/8 miles?
since the rate was 45 cents i multiplied 0.45 by 1.1 and got 0.495 and then i kept adding to the cost and 1/4 to the amount of miles until i got 3 1/8 miles. my answer was 4.715 so i rounded to 4.72, is that correct?Step-by-step explanation:
