Answer: Juan travelled 28 miles in the taxi

Step-by-step explanation:

A taxi company charges $2.25 for the first mile and then $0.20 per mile for each additional mile. This means that for m additional miles, the charge will be 2.25 + 0.20(m - 1)

So if F represents the fare, then

F = $2.25 + $0.20(m - 1)

If Juan's taxi fare was $7.65, to determine the number of miles that she paid for, we would substitute F = $7.65 into the equation,

F = $2.25 + $0.20(m - 1). It becomes

7.65 = 2.25 + 0.20(m-1)

7.65 = 2.25 + 0.20m - 0.20

7.65 - 2.25 + 0.20 = 0.2m

0.2m = 5.6

m = 5.6/0.2 = 28 miles

The probability that Mary's outfit will be black blouse, black pants, black shoes is 1/24 if the Mary has 3 blouses, 2 pairs of pants, and 4 pairs of shoes.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

We have:

Mary has 3 blouses (red, black, and white), 2 pairs of pants (black and blue), and 4 pairs of shoes (red, blue, black, and white).

P(black blouse) = 1/3

P(black pants) = 1/2

P(black shoes) = 1/4

Probability that Mary's outfit will be black blouse, black pants, black shoes:

= (1/3)(1/2)(1/4)

= 1/24

Thus, the probability that Mary's outfit will be black blouse, black pants, black shoes is 1/24 if the Mary has 3 blouses, 2 pairs of pants, and 4 pairs of shoes.
