Max is taking a cab in New York City. The fare is calculated as a base charge of $3.00 plus an additional $2.00 per mile traveled. It is also customary to leave a $2 tip. If Max wants to spend exactly $20, how many miles can he travel?

7.5miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the fare is calculated as a base charge of $3.00 plus an additional $2.00 per mile traveled and also customary to leave a $2 tip and Max wants to spend exactly $20. This information can be formed into an equation as:

Let the miles that he can travel be m.

3 + (2 × m) + 2 = 20

3 + 2m + 2 = 20

5 + 2m = 20

2m = 20 - 5

2m = 15

m = 15/2

m = 7.5miles

Therefore, Max can travel 7.5miles
