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.

Sorry if this is confusing

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
