Answer:
24 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the cost of the company consist of two elements; a fixed cost equivalent to $4 and a variable cost element which depends on the miles driven. If the car travels x miles then the cost will be
= 4 + 1*x
= 4 + x
If the total cost is $28 then
4 + x = 28
Subtract 4 from both sides
x = 28 - 4
= 24
The car ride is
24/1 = 24 miles
