N is the # of miles...
49 = 0.80 * N + 4 + 5
49 = 0.80 * N + 9
40 = 0.80 * N
400 = 8N
N = 50

asked 01/14/21In one U.S. city the taxi cost is $4 plus $0.80 per mile. If you are traveling from the airport there is an additional charge of $5.00 for tolls. How far can you travel from the airport by taxi for $49.00?
