Question

A taxi fare has a fixed charge of $1.75 and an additional change $0.45 per mile. A fare for m is $13.19 which equations could be used to find m miles.
A.) 1.75 ( 13.90 + m ) = 1
B.) 1.75 + 0.45m = 13.19
C.) 0.45 + 1.75m = 13.19
D.) ( 0.45 + 11.20 ) m = 1.75

Answer 2

$\huge{\boxed{\red{\bf{Answer:-}}}}$

We have been given that a taxi fare has a fixed charge of 1.75 and an additional charge 1.75 and an additional charge 0.45 per mile. A fare for m miles is $13.90.

Let m be number of miles traveled by taxi. Now we will use our given information to write an equation that could be used to find number of m miles as:

0.45m+1.75=13.900.45m+1.75=13.90

Therefore, equation to find m miles will be 0.45m+1.75=13.900.45m+1.75=13.90 .

Now let us find number of miles taxi traveled for a fare of $13.90.

0.45m=13.90-1.750.45m=13.90−1.75

0.45m=12.150.45m=12.15

$\frac{0.45}{12.15}$ m=27m=27

Therefore, taxi covered 27 miles in $13.90.
