A taxi company charges passengers $1.75 for a ride, no matter how long the ride is, and an additional $0.40 for each mile traveled. The rule mc014-1.jpg describes the relationship between the number of miles m and the total cost of the ride c. What is the charge for a 2.7-mile ride?

Respuesta :

$2.4

 1.75+0.40x=2.7
-1.75            -1.75
-------------------------
            0.40x=0.95
            -------------
                  0.40
             X=2.375
