The total cost of a cab ride can be represented by the function f(x) = 3x + 2.5, where x is the number of miles driven Estimate how much the cab will cost if the cab ride is 8 miles and 25 miles.

8 miles: $26.50

25miles: $77.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute (x) for the number of miles

8 miles: f(x)=3(8)+2.50

=24+2.50

=26.50

25miles: f(x)=3(25)+2.50

=75+2.50

=77.50

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.

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
