Ann took a taxi home from the airport. The taxi fare was $2.10 per mile, and she gave the driver a tip of $5. Ann paid a total of $49.10. Write an equation to determine the distance in miles (2) between the airport and Ann's home. Find the distance between the airport and Ann's home. miles
If it is $2.10 per mile and she tipped the driver $5, then you should first subtract the $5 from the $49.10. Then divide 45.1 by 2.1 to get 21.47.... This can be rounded to 21.5 miles.
