In one U. S. city, the taxi cost is $2 plus $0.50 per mile. If you are traveling from the airport, there is an additional charge of $6.00 for tolls. How far can you travel from the airport by taxi for $38.00?

60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation for the cost for traveling from the airport can be represented by y= .50x + 2 + 6

where y is the final cost and x is the amount of miles. plug in 38 to y to get 38 = .50× +2 + 6. Solve for x.

38-6 =.50× +2

32 =.50x +2

32-2=.50x

30=.50x

30/.50=x

60=x

therefore, the 60 miles is how far you can go with $38

neither i nor ii 56 / 4.9 = 11.91489362 and 82 / (11+5) =5.125 so i is wrong

ii. (24/8+2) times 3 = 15 and (42+9)/2 =25.5

step-by-step explanation:
