In Boston taxicabs charge an initial fare and an additional amount for every mile traveled. Tahira is having trouble figuring out how the system works. She paid $7.00 for a two-mike ride one day and she paid $24.50 for a nine-mule ride the next day. Use the data given to find the amount the taxis charge per mile

The taxi charges $2.5 for every mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let x be the initial taxicab fare and y be the additional amount for every mile traveled.

Cost for a two mile ride = $7.00

Thus, we can write the equation:

Cost of a nine mile ride = $24.50

Thus, we can write the equation,

Solving the two equation by elimination method, we have,

Thus, $2 is the initial fare and $2.5 is the cost for every mile traveled.

step-by-step explanation:

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.

the degrees would remain the same ( the number to the left of the decimal point.

the multiply the decimal by 60 to get the minutes and use the numbers to the left of the decimal point.

then multiply the decimal portion of that by 60 for the seconds and round off as needed.

39 .956652

the 39 remains the degrees.

the minutes = 0.956652 x 60 = 57.39912

the minutes = 57

the seconds = 0.39912 x 60 = 23.95 = 24 ( rounded to nearest tenth)

so 39.956652 = 39 degrees, 57 minutes and 24 seconds

-75.159809

the -75 remains the degrees

the minutes = 0.159809 x 60 = 9.58854

the minutes = 9

the seconds = 0.58854 x 60 = 35.31, rounded to nearest tenth = 35.3 seconds

so -75.159809 = -75 degrees, 9 minutes and 35.3 seconds.

the first coordinate is north or south, since it it positive it is north.

the second number is east or west, because it is negative it is west.
