Question

A taxi cab costs $3.75 for the first mile and $0.85 for each additional mile. You

have $50 to spend on your ride. Which inequality could be solved to find how
many miles you can travel, if n is the number of additional miles?

Answer 1

$50≥3.75+0.85n

Explanation:

You only have $50 to spend. Which means that you can only spend $50 or less. Then you have to pay $3.75 for the first mile and then add $0.85 per additional mile. If n is the number of additional miles, then it would be 0.85n.

So it would be $50≥3.75+0.85n.
