Question

A taxi service for the first 1/10 mile is 1.00$ for each additional .10 cents for each 1/10

mile after that.
how much would it be for 9/10 miles

Answer 1

1.8 dollars

Explanation:

so you would have 8 1/10 miles that you need to pay .10 cents for. So you can do 8x.10=0.8

But you still have that first 1/10 mile so you need to add 1.00 to that 0.8

so just add those together to get 1.8 dollars. And so for those 9/10 miles you would pay 1.8 dollars
