Answer: It would cost $17.5 travel 25 miles.

Explanation:

Given: Flat rate = $15

Charge per mile = $0.10

Total cost = Flat rate + (Charge per mile) (Number of miles)

Let x= Number of miles traveled.

So Total cost = 15 +0.10x

Put x= 25 miles

Total cost = 15 +0.10(25)

= 15+2.5 = $17.5

Hence, it would cost $17.5 travel 25 miles.
