Answers

  1. The number of miles in the taxi ride is 18 miles
    Equation:19.70=1.70+1x
    Answer: x =18
    What is the total fare?
    The total fare for the taxi is the pick-up fee of $1.70 plus the $1 per mile multiplied by the number of miles covered
    Total fair=1.70+1x
    x is the number of miles covered
    Total fair=19.70
    19.70=1.70+1x
    19.70-1.70=1x
    18.00=1x
    x=18.00/1
    x=18
