Answer:

$40 and 10 x cents.

Explanation:

$75.50 and 18 cents - $35.50 and 8 cents = $40.00 and 10 cents per mile. For x miles, we multiply $40.00 and 10 cents by x miles.

Also, we could convert dollars to cents by multiply it by 100 Since $1 =100 cents.

7568 - 3558 cents = 4010 cents. For x miles, 4010X cents.
