Answer:

the unit price that required is $30.60

Explanation:

The computation of the unit price that required is shown below

For one mile, the cost is

= taxi ride cost ÷ distance covered

= $50.40 ÷ 56

= $0.90

Now for the cost of 34 mile taxi ride

= Unit cost × distance covered

= $0.90 × 34 mile

= $30.60

hence, the unit price that required is $30.60

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct cost could come

The same is to be considered
