She is correct because if you split up the parallelogram, and connect the triangles formed by splitting the parallelogram, then you get a normal rectangle, and to get the area for a rectangle, you just multiply base and height
The fare without tip for the Metro Taxi is of 1 passenger and 9.5 miles is $27.83.
The given parameters:
- <em>Number of passenger = 1</em>
- <em>Total distance = 9.5 miles</em>
- <em>Cost of first 0.2 mile = $0.75</em>
- <em>Cost of additional mile = $0.55</em>
- <em>Cost of a passenger = $1.50</em>
The fare without tip for the Metro Taxi is calculated as follows;
- for the first 0.2 mile = $0.75
- the remaining distance = 9.5 - 0.2 = 9.3 miles

Cost of 1 passenger = $1.50
The total cost is calculated as follows;
total cost = $1.50 + $26.325
total cost = $27.83
Thus, the fare without tip for the Metro Taxi is of 1 passenger and 9.5 miles is $27.83.
The complete question is below:
Compute the fare without tip: 1 passenger, 9.5 miles. Round to nearest fifth of a mile when dividing.
Metro Taxi: first 1/5 mi= $0.75, each additional 1/5 mi= $0.55, each additional passenger= $1.50.
