Answer:

12.5 or less

Explanation:

Let x b the number of miles Sharon travels, we can write an expression relating the amount she spends. We can add the cab flat fee and the amount per mile. So there:


=0.5+1.50=2

So let that total cost per mile be less than equal to the amount the Sharon can spend:

2x≤25

We can determine x:

x≤12.5

Sharon can travel 12.5 or less
