8. Syairra needs to take an Uber to get to the airport. The Uber charges $5.00 for
the first mile, and then $3.00 for each mile
after that. If the total charge is $62.00,
then how far was Syairra's taxi ride to the
airport?

20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the Uber charges $5.00 for the first mile you have to subtract that from the total which is 62.

62.00 - 5.00 = 57.00

Then you keep subtracting 3.00 from 57.00 or you can divide 57 by 3 because 57 is how much money is left and the Uber charges 3 dollars for each mile after the first.

57.00 divided by 3.00 is 19

Then add 1 to 19 which equals 20 miles. You add 1 to 19 because 19 is the amount of miles she goes but that doesn’t include the 1st mile.
