PLEASE HELPPPP! Emily is entering a bicycle race for charity. Her mother pledges $0.80 for every 0.5 mile she bikes. If Emily bikes 8 miles, how much will her mother donate?

Answer:

$12.80 donated money if she bikes 8 miles. solved by finding out how much money she'll get in a mile add .80+.80 and get $1.60. this is way easier to set up equation instead if doing it by half mile. equation is y=1.6(x) // y is money donated, x is $1.60
