Question

EMERGENCY A speeding ticket costs $80 plus $10 for each mile per hour over the speed limit the violator was traveling. How much would someone going 12 miles per hour faster than the speed limit have to pay for their ticket?

Answer 1

$200

Explanation:

Fine calculated per mile = $10

Fine calculated for 'm' mile = 10 * m = 10m

Cost paid by violator = 80 + 10m

m = 12 miles

Cost paid by the violator = 80 + 10*12

= 80 + 120

= $ 200
