Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Ann took a taxi home from the airport. The taxi fare was $2.10 per mile, and she gave the driver a tip of $5. Ann paid a total of $49.10.
Let x be the distance in miles between airport and Ann's home. The fare per mile taxi ride is $2.10, therefore, the fare for x miles of taxi ride will be 2.10x.
We can see that $5 will be constant value for our equation as it will remain same. will be total amount paid by Ann for x miles of taxi ride including tip.
We can write an equation to determine the distance between airport and Ann's home by equating fare of x miles plus tip given by Ann's to driver with total amount paid by Ann.
Therefore, an equation representing the distance in miles between airport and Ann's home will be .

Answer:
x = ± i
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 64 from both sides
9x² = - 64 ( divide both sides by 9 )
x² = - ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± = ±
