Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by creating a linear equation.

Slope: 2.50

Y-intercept: 4.70

y=2.50x+4.70

Since we know that the total fare was 24.70 we can plug it into the y.

24.70=2.50x+4.70

Now solve for the equation.

20=2.50x

8=x

So he went 8 miles with the taxi.
