In one U.S City, the taxi cost is $5 plus $0.50 per mile. If you are traveling from the airport, there is an additional charge of $5.00 for tolls. How far can you travel from the airport taxi for $35.00?

You can travel 50miles with $35.00 because if you add the the $5 for the taxi and then the $5 for the tolls that is $10 which means you have $25 left for the miles you get one mile with $0.50 so you would multiply 25 by 2 which is 50. Hope that helped.
