Answer:
14.91288 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a proportion to solve this problem. Put the distance over the cost. We want our answer in miles so we need to convert 8 kilometers to miles. 1 km = .621371 miles
8 km * .621371 miles/ 1 km = 4.971 miles
4 .971 miles x miles
--------------------- = ------------------
10 dollars 30 dollars
Using cross products
4.971 * 30 = 10x
149.1288= 10 x
Divide by 10 on each side
149.1288/10= 10/10 x
14.91288 =x
