Hello! In order to understand this question, we need to take a look at the content that is involved.
Lupita pays $40.03 in total. Meaning that's where we are going to start if we want to find out how many miles her ride was. Since the taxi charges a flat rate of $6.75. We would want to subtract it from her total value because we only work with that flat rate once. Which ends up giving us $33.28. From there, we don't need to worry about the flat rate anymore and we now focus on the mileage. If it costs $3.20 per mile, then we can simply divide the amount after to flat rate by the cost per mile, to figure out how many miles she has gone. In the end, you will get 10.4 miles.

Answer:
Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52
Step-by-step explanation:
In 3 years their ages will add up to 71 so you have to subtract 6 as there are two of them to get 65. Lacy's age is represented by x and since Jack is 4 times older his age is represented by 4x. So added together their age is 5x. So 5x=65. Then 65/5=13. So 13=x. So Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52 as 13x4 is 52.
