A Taxi cab costs $1.50 for the first mile and $0.75 for each additional mile. Which equation could be solved to find how many miles you can travel for $10, given that “x” is the number of additional miles? (Also solve this equation for the number of additional miles.)
A. 1.5x +0.75 = 10; x =6.17
B. 0.75x + 1.5 = 10; x = 11.333..
C. 1.5x -0.75 =10; x =7.17
D. 0.75x – 1.5 =10; x =15.33

Answer 1

it's b. 1.5 is the initial price for the first mile. then for each mile they add .75 meaning 1.5 + .75x = 10

Answer 2

B
