You have $20 to spend on taxi fare. The ride costs $5 plus $2.50 per mile.

Let m represent the number of miles ridden. Write an inequality to determine how many miles you can ride for $20?

What is the maximum whole number of miles you can ride for $20?

Well if you take 5 from 20 its 15 then divide 15 by 2.50 then you get 6 so 6 miles
