City Cabs charges a $1.501.50 pickup fee and $1.751.75 per mile traveled. Diego's fare for a cross-town cab ride is $22.5022.50. How far did he travel in the cab?

12 miles

Explanation:

Given that,

Pick up fees charge by the city cabs = $1.50

Cost per mile traveled = $1.75

Diego's fare for a cross-town cab ride = $22.50

Let the distance traveled by the Diego be x,

So, the total fare is as follows,

= Pick up fees + Cost per mile traveled

= 1.50 + 1.75x

Total fare = 1.50 + 1.75x

22.50 = 1.50 + 1.75x

22.50 - 1.50 = 1.75x

21 = 1.75x

12 = x

Therefore, he traveled 12 miles.
