Ian rode in a taxi to get to an airport. The total cost of his taxi ride was more than $12. Write and solve an inequality to find the possible distances, in miles, Ian could have traveled in the taxi. Show or explain how you got your answer.

Missing Part:

The initial fee for a taxi ride is $2.60.  Each mile traveled in a taxi costs an additional $2.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

per mile

Required

Miles traveled for more than $12

First, we represent the given parameters as an equation.

Represent miles with x and cost with y

So:

In Ian case, the distance traveled is more than $12.

This is represented as:

Substitute 12 for y

Make 2.50x the subject

Make x the subject

i pretty sure it is
