Answer 2

Given:

Distance travelled= 60km

Cost= $35

To find:

The cost when the distance is 95 km.

Solution:

We can find the solution by following the given steps-

We are given that the distance and cost vary directly.

When the distance increases the cost of the fare also increases.

Using the unitary method,

The cost when the distance traveled is 60km= $35

The cost when the distance traveled is 95km= 95×35/60

=95×7/12

=$ 55.41

Therefore, the cost when the distance is 95km is $55.41.
