Answer:

2145.83 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

y ≤ 62.50 + 0.12x

Definitions

y = the amount of money.

x = the number of miles

Solution

320 ≤ 62.50 + 0.12x                                 Subtract 62.50 from both sides

320 - 62.50 ≤  62.50 - 62.50 + 0.12x     Combine

257.50 ≤ 0.12x                                          Divide both sides by 0.12

257.50/0.12 ≤ 0.12x / 0.12                        Do the division        

2145.83 miles ≤ x
