1.1(10 + 4.75x) = 58
10 + 4.75x = 580/11
4.75x = 470/11
4 3/4 x = 470/11
19/4x = 470/11
x = 470/11 * 4/19
= around 9 miles

If this helped, please consider making it the brainliest answer! :)

This is one of those problems that you have to work backwards ...
start with the total, and work  back to the parts that make it up.

-- The total is  $58 .

-- The tip was 10% of the total fare.   
   So 
                                          1.10 (total fare)  =  58

Divide each side by 1.1 :        Total fare    = 58/1.1 =  $52.73

Out of the total fare, $10 was the flat fee before they drove
anywhere.    So the amount for mileage was  $42.73 .

Mileage was charged at the rate of  $4.75 per mile.
So the distance was
                                       42.73 / 4.75  =  9.00 miles (rounded)

If GHJ is equal to LMK, with a scale factor of 5:6, find the perimeter of GHJ.
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:  Weeeell,  35

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition, the perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lenght of each side.

2. Then, the perimeter of the triangle LMK is:

P_{LMK}=14+17+11\\P_{LMK}=42

3. If both triangles are congruent and the scale factor is 5:6 (Which you can rewrite as a fraction: 5/6), you must multiply the perimeter of the triangle   LMK by this scale factor.

4. Then, you have that the perimeter of the triangle GHJ is:

P_{GHJ}=42*\frac{5}{6}=35
