Question

The taxi ride costs $3.00 plus

$0.50 cent more for each quarter
mile traveled. What was the cost
for a 2 mile trip?

Answer 1

$7

because theres 4 quarters in a mile so one mile would equal to $2 bc

0.50 x 4 = $2

and you have to go 2 miles so

$2 + $2 = $4

then you add the the cost of the taxi so

$4+ $3

= $7
