Question

A cab charges $1.75 for the flat fee and $0.25 for each mile. Write and solve an inequality to determine how many miles Eddie can travel if he has $15 to spend. (2 points)

$1.75 + $0.25x ≤ $15; x ≤ 53 miles
$0.25 + $1.75x ≤ $15; x ≤ 8 miles
is this one right? >>$1.75 + $0.25x ≥ $15; x ≥ 53 miles
$0.25 + $1.75x ≥ $15; x ≥ 8 miles

Answer 1

close but the sign has to be ≤ because he can only spend up to $15

Answer 2

ooh thank you!
