1. katie clean invited messy missy to her house
no idea what a visit from messy missy entailed. first
messy missy to her house to work on their biology project, but katie clean had
trom messy missy entailed. first of all, it was raining and messy missy neither
of hot chips on katie clean's white bedspread withou
boots off nor thoroughly wiped them on the doormat. then messy missy ate a bag
on katie clean's white bedspread without asking, and messy missy is a sloppy eater, so hot
powder got all over the bedspread. katie clean tried to be polite and ignore messy missy's sloppy
tor, but then messy missy threw her chip wrapper on the floor. offended, katie clean pretended
that she was sick and asked messy missy to leave. the next day katie clean asked the teacher if she
could work by herself. after explaining her situation, the teacher allowed katie to work alone. messy
missy would have finished the assignment by herself, but she spilled grape soda all over her assignment.

it dosen't

explanation:

because it dosent

in the problem you wrote said that the taxi charges $0.070 per mile(which would be 7 cents per mile), but then in your suggested equation you have it as $0.70 per mile (which is 70 cents per mile).

the latter seems more realistic, so i will assume that the taxi costs $5.00 and charges $0.70 per mile with tolls costing an additional $3.50. and it asks you to find how far you can travel on $36.50.

let x the number of miles traveled. since the taxi charges $0.70 per mile, multiplying this by the miles traveled (x) will yield the cost of the taxi ride as far as how far it took you. then adding this amount to the cost of the taxi ($5.00) and the additional cost for the tolls ($3.50) will give you the total cost of the taxi ride ($36.50)

that is,

            (0.70)x + 5.00 + 3.50 = 36.50

adding the like terms on the left-hand side of this equation, we arrive at the following:

            (0.70)x + 8.50 = 36.50

subtracting 8.50 from both sides of the equation, we get:

            (0.70)x = 28.00

to solve for x, divide both sides of the equation above by the coefficient of x (that being, 0.70):

            x = 40

thus, you can travel up to 40 miles on $36.50

let us march on till victory is won.",

because the rising sun is a symbol of hope.
