Here we must write and solve a linear equation to find the number of miles that Arun traveled in the taxi. We will find that Eva traveled 11 miles.
So we know that the taxi charges a fee of $4.10 and then a plus of $0.50 per mile.
So if you travel for m miles, the cost equation is:
C(m) = $4.10 + $0.50*m
Now, we know that for Eva the total fare (total cost) was $9.60, then we need to solve:
$9.60 = C(m) = $4.10 + $0.50*m
$9.60 = $4.10 + $0.50*m
$9.60 - $4.10 = $0.50*m
$5.50 = $0.50*m
$5.50/$0.50 = m = 11
This means that Arun traveled 11 miles in the taxi.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:


This is because we subtract 456 from each side.

We then divide the whole equation by <em>x</em> .

Adding 50 to both sides gives us <em>x</em> by itself, hope this helps :D
The closest answer I can see you type is: 35/1.66666666
This is because you divide 21 by 18 which (if you divide 21 by 1.666666 you get 18) and whatever you do to 1 side, you do to the other, then you get 35/1.6666666
