Question

Yellow cab taxi charges a $1.75 flat rate in addition to $0.65 per mile. Kim has no more than $10 to spend on a ride. How many miles can Kim travel without exceeding his limit?

Answer 1

Answer:

12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the flat rate of 1.75 from the spending limit of 10$ which leaves you with 8.25 then divide the rest of your spending money (8.25$) into your rate per mile (0.65) , so essentially , 8.25 / 0.65 which leaves you with the answer of ;

12 miles

Answer 2

Answer:

12.6 Miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: 1.75 + 0.65m <= 10

0.65m <= 10 - 1.75

0.65m <= 8.25

m <= 8.25/0.65

m <= 12.6

Don't get confused with m its miles :)
