A taxi service charges a flat fee of $1.25 and $0.75 per mile. If Henri has $14.00, which of the following shows the number of
miles he can afford to ride in the taxi?
1 answer:
Flat fee: $1.25; cost per mile: $0.75. Cost per x miles: ($0.75)x.
Therefore: $14 = $1.25 + $0.75x. Solve this for x:
$12.75 = $0.75x. Divide both sides by $0.75: x = $12.75 / $0.75 = 17
He can afford to ride up to 17 miles in the taxi.
