Sara needs to take a taxi to get to the movies. The taxi charges $4.00 for the first mile, and the $2.75 for each Mile after that. If the total changes is $20.50, then how far was sara's taxi ride to the movie?

Respuesta :

6 miles is the answer first you subtract the initial fee thn you divide the number by the price per mile

First you do
4+2.75= 6.75 that's the first 2 miles
Then you do
2.75x5= $13.75
$13.75+$6.75= $20.50
So the answer is 6
As you times the fare of $2.75 by 5 miles then you add on the first mile that is $4
