Question

A taxi cab charges $1.45 for the flat fee and $0.55 for each mile. Write an inequality to determine how many miles Ariel can travel if she has $35 to spend.

Answer 1

Answer: $35

Explanation:

61 miles or less for $35

1.45 + 0.55 * x <= 35

0.55 * x <= 35 - 1.45

0.55 * x <= 33.55

x <= 33.55 / 0.55

x <= 61 miles

Answer 2

1.45 + .5 ≤ 35 is the inequality
