Answer:
Option D
The answer is $9.72
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, We are given that;
For first 1/4 mile = $1.25,
For each additional 1/4 mile = $0.35,
For each additional passanger = $1.25.
Now,
4 1/2 = 9/2 = 4.5 miles
Here, the price is different for the first 1/4 mile.
So,
4.5 – 0.25 = 4.25 miles
↬ If it costs $0.35 for 0.25 mile then it will cost $1.4 for 1 mile.
0.35 × 4 = $1.4
Now, for 4.25 miles
1.4 + 1.4 + 1.4 + 1.4 + 0.35 = $5.95
Now, For first 1/4 mile and for each additional passanger.
$5.95 + $1.25 + $1.25 = $8.45
Here, The total fare with 15% tip
8.45 × 15 ÷ 100 = $1.2675
Now,
$8.45 + $1.2675 = $9.7175 ≈ $9.72
Thus, The answer is $9.72
