Jacob and his family take a taxi to the airport. the
taxi charges $1.75 for each mile. if the distance to the
airport is 7 miles, about how much will the taxi ride
cost?

the taxi ride will cost $12.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob and his family take a taxi to the airport. The taxi charges $1.75 for each mile. This means that if Jacob travels for x miles, the charge, y in dollars will be x miles times 1.75 which is the charge per mile. It becomes

y = 1.75x

If the distance to the airport is 7 miles, it means that x = 7 and we will substitute it into the equation,

y = 1.75x. It becomes

y = 1.75 × 7 = $12.25

just needed some points but try socratic

answer: you need the equation in the question so i can answer it
