The apache taxi company charges $2.50 to pick up a passenger and then adds $1.95 per mile. isaac was charged $27.46 to go from one city to another. if x represents the number of miles driven by the taxi, which linear equation can be used to solve this problem, and how many miles did isaac travel, rounded to the nearest tenth?

The linear equation

Isaac travel total distance=12.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Apache Taxi Company charges to pick up a passenger = $2.50

Per mile charge=$1.95

Isaac pay charges when he go from one city to another =$27.46

Let total distance travel by Isaac=x miles

According to question

The linear equation is given by

1.95x+ 2.50=27.46

By solving this equation we find value of x

1.95x = 27.46-2.50

By subtraction property of equality

1.95x= 24.96

x=

By division property of equality

x=12.8

Hence, total distance travel by Isaac= 12.8 miles

stops on an even number.
