Mrs. Anderson took a taxi to visit the Petrified Forest northwest of Jackson, Mississippi. The taxi fare for the trip was $14.80, based on a fixed charge of $2.00 plus a charge of $0.80 for each mile. Write and solve an equation to determine the number of miles that Mrs. Anderson rode in the taxi.

Answer :

000050000

Answer:

X= (14.80-2.00)/0.80 She rode a total of 16 miles in the taxi.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to take the final total ($14.80) and subtract the fixed charge ($2.00) which would leave you with $12.80. Then you need to divide by 0.80 to figure out how many miles she traveled. Hopefully this it right and hopefully it helped!
