The taxi fare in Gotham City is $2.40 for the first ½ mile, and each additional mile costs $0.20. You plan to give the driver a $2.00 tip. How many miles can you ride for $10.00?

He can ride for 28 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost of the ride = $ 10

Tips = $ 2

Cost of ride excluding tips = 10 - 2 = $ 8

Taxi fare for first 500 miles = $ 2.40

Taxi fare excluding first 500 miles =  8 - 2.40 = $ 5.60

distance traveled by him excluding first 500 miles = 5.60 ÷ cost of additional mile

 = 5.60 ÷ 0.20

=28 miles

2500

step-by-step explanation:

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
