The company charges $1.40 per mile.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Cost of 6.5 miles ride = $12.00
Cost of 9 mile ride = $15.50
Let,
x be the cost per mile.
y be the pick up fee.
Total cost = Cost per mile*distance + pick up fee
According to statement;
6.5x+y=12.00 Eqn 1
9x+y=15.50 Eqn 2
Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 2

Dividing both sides by 2.50

The company charges $1.40 per mile.

This equation uses y and x so it cannot be factorised.
Let’s try the equation y^2 - 12y + 36 = 0
Look for two factors of 36 that add to -12.
This would be -6 and -6
(y - 6)(y - 6) = 0
(y - 6) must equal 0
y = 6
