Answer:
58.2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the length of RS using similarity ratio
7/34 = 12/RS cross multiply expressions
7RS = 408 divide both sides by 7
RS = 58.2 approximately.
The answer is <span>a. $1.75 + $0.25x ≤ $15; x ≤ 53 miles
</span>
x - the number of miles
C - the cab charge
<span>A cab charges $1.75 for the flat fee and $0.25 for each mile: C = 1.75 + 0.25x.
</span><span>Eddie has $15 to spend. So, he cannot spend more than 15 on the cab and the maximum amount he can spend is 15. Therefore:
</span>1.75 + 0.25x ≤ 15
Now, let's solve it:
0.25x ≤ 15 - 1.75
0.25x ≤ 13.25
x ≤ 13.25 / 0.25
x ≤ 53
