Answer:
C. [tex]0.50x+1.50\leq 25[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent number of miles.
We have been given that a taxi cab charges $1.50 for the flat fee and $0.50 for each mile.
The cost of riding x miles would be [tex]0.50x[/tex] and the total cost of riding x miles would be [tex]0.50x+1.50[/tex].
Since Sharon has only $25 to spend on the taxi ride, so the cost of riding x miles on taxi must be less than or equal to 25.
We can represent this information in an inequality as:
[tex]0.50x+1.50\leq 25[/tex]
Therefore, option C is the correct choice.
