A taxi ride costs $9.25. The driver charges a flat rate of $4.00 just to enter the car. If each mile costs .25, how many miles did you ride? *

Respuesta :

Answer:

21 Miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the flat rate away 9.25-400 = 5.25

We know it is .25 per mile so we can divide 5.25/.25 to find the number of miles.

5.25/.25= 21

Answer: ( Edit* )

21 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by subtracting $4 from $9.25:

9.25 - 4 = 5.25

Now divide by 0.25 to obtain our mileage:

5.25 / 0.25 = 21

We rode 21 miles.
