A taxi company charges $2.50 plus $1.10 for each mile driven. Weite an equation to represent this situation. Use this equation to determine how far you can travel if you have $10.00

Let x = number of miles driven

Let n = $

$1.10x + $2.50 = n

$1.10x + $2.50 = $10

- $2.50 - $2.50

$1.10x = $7.50

--- - - ---

$1.10 $1.10

x = 6 miles

check work

$1.10x + $2.50 = n

$1.10 (6) + $2.50 = $10?

$6.60 + $2.50 = $10?

$9.10 = $10

you'll have 90 cents left over
