Question

a taxi charges 2.05 per ride and .20 per mile . how many miles can you travel in the cab and have the fare be less than $10?

Answer 1

i get 39.75 miles, but that is not a whole number

Answer 2

the question asks for a whole number?

Answer 3

i don't know. i assume so.

Answer 4

if it does, round it to 39 because if you round it up, the fare will cost more than 10 dollars. Also, 39.75 miles is when the fare will be exactly 10 dollars, it has to be less

Answer 5

if the equation called for less than or equal to $10, then would 39.75 be correct?

Answer 6

Yes

Answer 7

thank you very much
