Answer:
10.4 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Write an equation for the total cost paid as a function of the # of miles driven:
L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x
and set this equal to $40.03 to determine the # of miles Lupita rode:
L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x = $40.03
Isolate the x term by subtracting $6.75 from both sides:
($3.20/mile)x = $40.03 - $6.75 = $33.28
Finally, divide both sides by ($3.20/mile):
x = $33.28 / ($3.20/mile)
= 10.4 miles
Lupita rode 10.4 miles in the taxi.
The system of Roman numerals is based on using special symbols to denote decimal digits I=1, X=10, C=100, M=1000, and their halves V=5, L=50, D=500. Positive integers are written by repeating these numerals.

Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of two of the nine members of ski patrol unit can be chosen is equal to the combinations of 9 taken 2. This can be calculated using the formula:
= 
, where
9! =9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2×1 and
7!=7×6×5×4×3×2×1
2!=2×1 then the equation becomes:
=
=36
