34 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

you ride 18 miles for $10.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The taxi fare in Monopolis City is $1.50 for the first 1 mile .

The additional mileage charged at the rate for each mile = $0.25

Then , the additional mileage charged at the rate for each 1 mile  = $ 0.25 x 2

= $ 0.5

Let x = Number of additional miles drove by taxi

Then , Total taxi fare = (Taxi fare for 1st mile) +(Fare per additional mile) x (Number of additional miles drove by taxi)  

Total taxi fare= 1.50+ 0.5 x

If total fare is $10 , we get

i.e. Number of additional miles drove by taxi = 17

Total miles drove nby taxi = 17+1=18

Hence, you ride 18 miles for $10.00.
