Question

One cab company charges a flat rate of $5.60 plus $2.05 per mile. If a person took the cab to the store and the total was $36.35, how many miles did it take to drive to the store?

Select one:
a. 15 miles
b. 63.04 miles
c. 12.13 miles
d. 13 miles

Answer 1

I want to say it is 15

What I did was subtract the 5.60 from the 36.35 and I got 30.75
After that I divided 30.75 by 2.05 and got 15

Answer 2

The answer for this is 15
36.35-5.60=30.75 /2.05=15
