Question

How many miles pls help me!!!

Answer 1

The answer would be 7 miles. I can see that the initial charge is $35. For every mile there is a $2 fee. I found this by looking at how much the fee increases from 1 mile to 3 miles. There’s a $4 increase. So $4 divided by 2 miles is equal to 2. 1 mile is equal to $2 after the initial price. I counted by 2s from 41 to 49. Every count of 2 is a mile. When I landed on 49 I was at the 7th mile. A half of a mile is equal to $1. I know this because from 7 miles to 8.5 miles, there is a $3 increase. The 8th mile would be $51, but the half of a mile increases the cost by $1. Sorry if it’s very wordy. The answer is 7 miles though!
