3.5m + 2.5 = 79.5 is the equation that could be used to determine m, the number of miles in the taxi ride.
Given in question,
Pick-up fee = $2.50
Fee per mile = $3.50
Total fare = $79.50
Let the no. of miles = m
Fee for m miles = 3.50m
Equation, 3.50m + 2.50 = 79.50.
Hence, the equation is 3.50m + 2.50 = 79.50.
