new york state wildlife expert richard thomas found that a woodchuck could   chuck around 35 feet of dirt in the course of digging a burrow. thomas reasoned that if a woodchuck could chuck wood, he would chuck an amount equivalent to the weight of the dirt, or 700 pounds.

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

if you’re a fan of chocolate, every occasion is right for this treat. feeling down? eat some chocolate. celebrating? eat some more. want to show your valentine how special you think your sweetheart is? offer up chocolate!   people have been enjoying chocolate as a food, drink and medicine for thousands of years. the ancient maya and aztecs called chocolate kakaw and used it as medicine. they also made chocolate offerings to their gods. chocolate comes from the cacao (kuh-kow) tree, and its scientific name reflects its history. theobroma cacao translates to “cacao, food of the gods.” these days, chocolate is not just for deities. the treat has become popular around the world.
