Question 6(Multiple Choice Worth 1 points) (01.04 LC) A taxicab charges 1.75 for the flat fee and 0.25 for each mile. Write an inequality to determine how many miles Eddie can travel if he has S15 to spend. how many miles Eddie can travel if he has 15 1.75+ 0.25xleqslant 15 1.75+ 0.25xgeqslant 15 0.25+ 1.75xleqslant 15 0.25+ 1.75xgeqslant 15

To determine how many miles Eddie can travel if he has $15 to spend, we need to write an inequality that represents the total cost of the taxi ride.<br /><br />The total cost of the taxi ride is the sum of the flat fee and the cost per mile. The flat fee is $1.75, and the cost per mile is $0.25. Let's represent the number of miles Eddie can travel as x.<br /><br />The inequality that represents the total cost of the taxi ride is:<br /><br />$1.75 + 0.25x \leq 15$<br /><br />This inequality states that the total cost of the taxi ride (the flat fee plus the cost per mile) should be less than or equal to $15.<br /><br />Now let's solve the inequality:<br /><br />$1.75 + 0.25x \leq 15$<br /><br />Subtract 1.75 from both sides:<br /><br />$0.25x \leq 13.25$<br /><br />Divide both sides by 0.25:<br /><br />$x \leq 53$<br /><br />Therefore, Eddie can travel up to 53 miles if he has $15 to spend.<br /><br />The correct answer is: $\$ 1.75+\$ 0.25x\leqslant \$ 15$
