Question

(2 points ) Levi is taking an Uber while he is on vacation. The uber charges $5 to pick him up and then $1.50 per mile that they drive himFill in the expression with the correct numbers to represent the given scenario Let m s represent miles driven m 5 1.50 6,50 10

Answer 1

To represent Levi's Uber charge, we can use the following expression:

Total Cost = Pickup Fee + (Cost per Mile × Miles Driven)

In this case, the pickup fee is $5, the cost per mile is $1.50, and we can let \( m \) represent the miles driven. The expression for the total cost would be:

Total Cost = 5 + (1.50 × m)

If we want to fill in the blanks with specific mile values such as 1, 6, 10, we can evaluate the expression for each value:

For \( m = 1 \):
Total Cost = 5 + (1.50 × 1) = 5 + 1.50 = **$6.50**

For \( m = 6 \):
Total Cost = 5 + (1.50 × 6) = 5 + 9 = **$14**

For \( m = 10 \):
Total Cost = 5 + (1.50 × 10) = 5 + 15 = **$20**

So, the complete expression is:

Total Cost = 5 + (1.50 × m)

And for the values you provided:

- For \( m = 1 \): Total Cost = **$6.50**
- For \( m = 6 \): Total Cost = **$14**
- For \( m = 10 \): Total Cost = **$20**
