    3.3 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Firstly, there is a plan to give the driver $2 as tip, this means you're planning to pay $8 for the trip as a whole.

    Now for the first 0.5 mile, there is a charge of $2.40. This means the amount left for the trip would be $8 - $2.4 = $5.6

    Now for this $5.6, there is a charge of $0.2 for addition 0.1 miles. The number of 0.1 miles she can go in $5.6 would be $5.6/$0.2 and that is 28

    The total number of 0.1 miles is thus 28 * 0.1 and this is 2.8 miles

    Total distance she can ride is thus 2.8 miles + 0.5 miles and that is 3.3 miles
