The apache taxi company charges $2.50 to pick up a passenger and then adds $1.95 per mile. isaac was charged $27.46 to go from one city to another. if x represents the number of miles driven by the taxi, which linear equation can be used to solve this problem, and how many miles did isaac travel, rounded to the nearest tenth?

1.95x + 2.50 = 27.46; isaac traveled 15.4 miles.

1.95x + 2.50 = 27.46; isaac traveled 12.8 miles.

2.50x + 1.95 = 27.46; isaac traveled 11.8 miles.

2.50x + 1.95 = 27.46; isaac traveled 10.2 miles.

In the diagram below, dab and dac are adjacent angles. if mdac = 25°, what is mdab in degrees? what is mbac in degrees?

The triangles are similar. what is the value of x? x=
