hello!!! first you would multiply the rate cost by the miles and then add the flat fee to that result.

so….

2.35 x 9.2

= 21.62

21.62 + 3.75

= 25.37

Answer:

It will cost $56.12

Explanation:

First do $3.75 + $2.35 which equals $6.01

So we do $6.01 or 6.1 x 9.2 and we get 56.12 so the answer is $56.12
