To take a taxi, it costs $ 3.00 $3.00dollar sign, 3, point, 00 plus an additional $ 2.00 $2.00dollar sign, 2, point, 00 per mile traveled. you spent exactly $ 20 $20dollar sign, 20 on a taxi, which includes the $ 1 $1dollar sign, 1 tip you left. how many miles did you travel?

8 miles

Explanation:

Explanation:

We have a taxi ride where the total fare is $3 plus $2 for every mile travelled plus a $1 tip and the whole thing is $20.

Let's first write a formula that expresses the cost of the ride:

Total cost

=

Flat fee

+

Mileage

+

Tip

Now let's drop in what we know:

20=3+2(miles)+1

- we know the total cost of 20, the fee of 3, the tip of 1 and the cost per mile of 2. The only thing we don't know is the number of miles. So let's solve for that.

First we subtract 3 and 1 from both sides and get:

16=2(miles)

Then we divide both sides by 2:

8=miles

subject: why anyone can be a genius.

occasion: moving forward in life.

audience: average person

purpose: to push you further in life

speaker: many famous geniuses.

here is the poem:

here is thy, and here is thee, genius is for what he can be.

poem is a matter of rhyme, but like ben frank said, life is a matter of time.

we have great inventors such as thomas edison, who said, "genius is one percent inspiration and 99% perspiration." no, no perspiration as what comes from your skeleton.

we have great minds, from places of all kinds, such as yu kaw la chi tie, (now im switching languages because yu kaw was japanese.)

てちハラスイヒイス, てちラスイヒイス

てちのちみスイヒイス.

you are a genius, well not yet, but you are capable, and that is a bet.
