Yellow cab taxi charges a $1. 75 flat rate in addition to $0. 65 per mile. Kim has no more than $10 to spend on a ride. How many miles can kim travel without exceeding his limit?.

Sagot :

Answer:

4 Miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Yellow cab taxi charges a $1.75 + 0.65 =$2.40

$2.40 x 2 = $4.80

$2.40 x 3 = $7.20

$2.40 x 4 = $9.60

Therefore, Kim can travel without exceeding his limit is 4 miles.

Answer:

12 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for this problem would be 0.65x+1.75

Now, we just plug in the x (miles) in the equation until we get y less or equal to 10. I'm going to start at 5 as an estimate.

0.65(5) + 1.75 = $5

0.65(10) + 1.75 = $8.25

0.65(12) + 1.75 = $9.55

If you cannot have a decimal mile in your answer, Kim can ride 12 miles.  

12.6923 miles is the closest you can get with $10 in a decimal answer.
