Q. A taxi cab costs $2.5 and $2 for each additional mile. You have $22.5 to spend on you ride. write the inequality, then find how many miles you can travel, if n is
the number of additional miles? *

The 3 mile cab ride includes a basic charge as well as the cost for the distance covered.

For a 6 mile trip, the cost is $4.80 which means that :

The cost of 3 miles is $4.80−$3.00=$1.80

Therefore the cost for 1 mile is $1.80÷3=$0.60

The basic fee for hiring the cab is $3.00−$1.80=$1.20

So the total cost, c for a trip of d miles will be:

c=0.6d+1.2

Check:

If d=3

c=0.6(3)+1.2=3

If d=6

c=0.6(6)+1.2=4.8
