Question

Idk what this question wants.

Answer 1

The question is asking you to look at the pattern between the amount of miles and the fare, and the determine the fare based on the pattern.

In this question, the pattern is that for every 0.1 mile that goes up, $0.05 is added on to the original price. 0.05 × 60 = $3, which is how much would be added on for 6 miles on top of 0.1 miles. If you add them together, you get $5.05 for 6.1 miles, but then you can subtract $0.05 because you only want 6 miles and get your answer as $5, which is option B.

I hope this helps! Sorry for the mix-up earlier

Answer 2

You have to find the relationship between miles and fares, and then find the fare for 6 miles.

To find the relationship, divide the fare by mile:

2.05/0.1 = 20.5

You'll see that you can do this with any mile and fare combination and get 20.5,

So if fare/mile = 20.5, and we have that the fare is 6,

6/mi = 20.5

Multiply mile on both sides

6 = 20.5mi

Divide 20.5 on both sides

About 0.29 is the mile when fare is 6
