<span>d=distance in miles
The cost is $2.75 (flat fee) plus $0.45 for each mile. This has to be less than or equal to the amount Susie has ($15)
2.75 + 0.45d ≤ 15</span><span>

Mr. Rowley : 16/14 reduces to 8/7
Ms. Rivera : 64/60 reduces to 16/15
No, these ratios are not equivalent. Because ratios can be written as fractions....and 8/7 is not equivalent to 16/15
The passenger has drove 40.8 miles in cab
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, To pick up a passenger, the cab company charges a fee of $3.30
Let "x" be the number of miles
For each mile the cab carries the passenger, there is a charge of $2.40 per mile
Therefore,
Total charge = 3.30 + 2.40 ( number of miles )
Total charge = 3.30 + 2.40x
<em><u>Given that passenger is charged $ 101.22</u></em>
Therefore, total charge = 101.22
101.22 = 3.30 + 2.40x
Solve the above expression for "x"
2.4x = 101.22 - 3.3
2.4x = 97.92
x = 40.8
Thus the passenger has drove 40.8 miles in cab
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 3 1/4 x 2 x 1 3/4 = 11 3/8 cubic feet
