The cost to ride a taxicab I have is $2.90 plus $1.80 per mile. If Scott wants to spend less than $50 for the cab, Write an inequality to represent the possible mileage he can travel.

Respuesta :

The inequality that represents the possible mileage Scott can travel is:

2.90  +  1.80x   <  50

Let the number of miles traveled be represented by x

The cost to ride a taxicab = $2.90

Cost of 1 mile = $1.80

The cost of travelling x miles = 1.80x

If Scott wants to spend less than $50 for the cab:

(The cost to ride a taxicab)  +  (Cost of 1 mile)(Number of miles) < 50

2.90  +  1.80x   <  50

The inequality that represents the possible mileage Scott can travel is:

2.90  +  1.80x   <  50
