Question 83395: a taxi company charges R8 up front plus R3 per kilometer travelled. If the fare is R83, what distance was travelled. Answer by rapaljer(4671) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x= number of kilometers traveled
Then the total cost of the taxi is
8+3x = 83
8+3x -8 = 83-8
3x=75
x= 25 kilometers
By the way, I am from the USA where we use $. What is an R???
