A cab charges $1.75 for the first mile $0.25 for each additional mile. Write and solve an inequality to determine how many miles eddie can travel if he has $15 A. $1.75 + $0.25x < $15; x < 53 miles B. $1.75 + $0.25x > $15; x >53 miles C. $0.25 + $1.75x < $15; x< 8 miles D.$0.25 + $1.75x > $15; x > 8 miles
Please help!!

@mathessentials please help
$0.25 (x-1) + $1.75 < $15
make sense?
Wait so the awnser would be....?
$0.25 + $1.75x < $15; x< 8 miles??
A. $1.75 + $0.25x < $15; x < 53 miles
THANK YOU SO MUCH
because the low fee of $0.25 depends on the miles x and total must be <$15
I only have one more...
ok,last one
Malcolm has $638.54 in his checking account. He must maintain a $500 balance to avoid a fee. he wrote a check for $159.50 today. Write and solve an inequality to solve for the least amount of money he need to deposit to avoid the fee A. 638.54 + 159.50 - x > 500; x > 298.04 B. 638.54 - 159.50 + x > 500; x > 298.04 C. 638.54 - 159.50 + x < 500; x < 298.04
he must maintain a balance $500, so balance>$500
So which one would it be
writing check, decrease or increase account? x deposit, increase or decrease the account?
So B?
yes
Thanks so much
