Dear Landlord,
I told Sophia not to leave her keys the
door. She didn't listen, though, and our
apartment was robbed. Now I have to go to the
police station and file a report. Because of
this, I will miss chemistry class, which is my
favorite class except for biology. In spite of
the hassle, this will teach Sophia to be more
careful when she is leaving the house.
However, it also means that we need new locks.
Can you please send a locksmith to our
apartment as soon as possible? We will add the
cost to our rent check this month.

im just doing this for the points

in the problem you wrote said that the taxi charges $0.070 per mile(which would be 7 cents per mile), but then in your suggested equation you have it as $0.70 per mile (which is 70 cents per mile).

the latter seems more realistic, so i will assume that the taxi costs $5.00 and charges $0.70 per mile with tolls costing an additional $3.50. and it asks you to find how far you can travel on $36.50.

let x the number of miles traveled. since the taxi charges $0.70 per mile, multiplying this by the miles traveled (x) will yield the cost of the taxi ride as far as how far it took you. then adding this amount to the cost of the taxi ($5.00) and the additional cost for the tolls ($3.50) will give you the total cost of the taxi ride ($36.50)

that is,

            (0.70)x + 5.00 + 3.50 = 36.50

adding the like terms on the left-hand side of this equation, we arrive at the following:

            (0.70)x + 8.50 = 36.50

subtracting 8.50 from both sides of the equation, we get:

            (0.70)x = 28.00

to solve for x, divide both sides of the equation above by the coefficient of x (that being, 0.70):

            x = 40

thus, you can travel up to 40 miles on $36.50

you do this because a real teammate puts the team first
