Answer:
3 1/3 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the unit rate. 2 1/2 is the numerator because distance is usually the numerator when it comes to unit rates. 3/4 is the denominator.
Let x = cost of desktop computer; then x - 250 = cost of laptop computer
converting % to decimals, 9% = 0.09 and 6% = 0.06
Then, 0.09x + (x - 250)0.06 = $300
0.09x + 0.06x - 15 = $300
0.15x = $315
x = $2100
then x - 250 = $1850
Proof: $2100•0.09 + 1850•0.06 = $189 + $111 = $300
