The taxifair in gotham city is $2.40 for the first half mile additional mileage charged at the rate of $.20 for each additional .1 mile. do you plan to give the driver $2 tip. how many miles can you ride for $10?

3.3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You have $10

Since you want to give $2 as tip, you actually have $10 - $2 = $8 [for mileage]

First half mile (0.5mi) is $2.40, so you will have remaining:

$8 - $2.40 = $5.6

Now,$0.20 is charged for 0.1 mile, how much can you go with $5.6?

We set up ratio and solve for the distance we can go with 5.6 (let this distance be x):

That is 2.8 miles with this

Remember, you have already taken into account 0.5 miles at the beginning, so total miles would be:

0.5 + 2.8 = 3.3 miles

With the tipping conditions and $10 budget, you can ride 3.3 miles
