The equation is x = 20.85 / 1.75 where x is the number of miles and the number of miles is 11.91 miles.

Given,

Sydney took a taxi from her house to the airport.

The taxi company charged a pick-up fee of $1.75 per mile.

The total fare was $20.85, not including the tip.

We need to write and solve an equation that can be used to determine the number of miles in the taxi ride.

We have,

Taxi fare per mile = $1.75

Total fare = $20.85

Find the number of miles in a total fare of $20.85.

$1.75 = 1 mile

Multiplying by 20.85 on both sides.

20.85 x $1.75 = 20.85 x 1 mile

Dividing by 1.75 on both sides.

(20.85 x $1.75) / 1.75  = (20.85 x 1 mile) / 1.75

$20.85 = 11.91 mile

We see that  11.91 miles will cost $20.85.

Write an equation to show this situation.

x = 20.85 / 1.75

Where x is the number of miles.

we get,

x = 20.85 / 1.75 = 11.91

Thus the equation is x = 20.85 / 1.75 and the number of miles is 11.91 miles.

Sami cuts out a rectangle that has a perimeter of 48 inches and a length of 13 inches.
ddd [48]

Answer:

Width is 11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure what the question is.  I think you might be looking for the width length.  The perimeter is the distance around a rectangle.  If the whole distance around is 48.  We have 2 lengths and 2 widths.  They tell us that the length is 13.  We have two lengths so the lengths add up to 26.  We can subtract that from 48 and that leaves us with 22 (48-26)  This is the total for the 2 widths.  Since the 2 widths are the same length we divide that number by 2 to get 11.

11 + 11+ 13 + 13 = 48
