4. Read this passage. Then, answer the multiple-choice question. In 1993, the Mississippi River overflowed, causing one of the worst floods in its history.
Approximately 74,000 people lost their homes, and $15 billion in property was damaged. Marion
Johnson, a homeowner in Grafton, Illinois, recalled, "When I woke up and hopped out of bed, I
was knee-deep in water. I had worked my whole life to buy this home—and now it was all gone,
just like that." This passage is an example of a —
•secondary source because the writer did not directly experience the flood
•primary source because the writer includes his or her own opinions
•primary source because the writer lost his or her home in the flood
•secondary source because the writer uses only secondhand information

in the problem you wrote said that the taxi charges $0.070 per mile(which would be 7 cents per mile), but then in your suggested equation you have it as $0.70 per mile (which is 70 cents per mile).

the latter seems more realistic, so i will assume that the taxi costs $5.00 and charges $0.70 per mile with tolls costing an additional $3.50. and it asks you to find how far you can travel on $36.50.

let x the number of miles traveled. since the taxi charges $0.70 per mile, multiplying this by the miles traveled (x) will yield the cost of the taxi ride as far as how far it took you. then adding this amount to the cost of the taxi ($5.00) and the additional cost for the tolls ($3.50) will give you the total cost of the taxi ride ($36.50)

that is,

            (0.70)x + 5.00 + 3.50 = 36.50

adding the like terms on the left-hand side of this equation, we arrive at the following:

            (0.70)x + 8.50 = 36.50

subtracting 8.50 from both sides of the equation, we get:

            (0.70)x = 28.00

to solve for x, divide both sides of the equation above by the coefficient of x (that being, 0.70):

            x = 40

thus, you can travel up to 40 miles on $36.50
