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 him. Fill in the expression with the correct numbers to
represent the given scenario. Let m represent miles driven.
-
m+
:: 5
:: 10
:: 6.50
:: 1.50

Answer 1

To represent the given scenario mathematically, we can create an expression that accounts for both the pickup charge and the cost per mile.

The total cost \( C \) of the Uber ride can be expressed as:

\[ C = 5 + 1.50m \]

This means:

• \( 5 \) represents the initial pickup charge.
• \( 1.50m \) represents the charge per mile (where \( m \) is the number of miles driven).

So, the complete expression is:

\[ C = 1.50m + 5 \]

Therefore, if you need to fill in the expression with the correct numbers to represent the scenario, it would go as follows:

m + 5 + 1.50m

Note that the other options (10, 6.50) do not directly correspond to the components of the cost as described in the scenario.
