A taxi company charges passengers $2.00 for a ride, no matter how long the ride is, and an additional $0.20 for each mile traveled. The rule c =0.20m + 2.00 describes the relationship between the number of miles m and the total cost of the ride c. What is the charge for a 2.7 mile ride?

It should give you 2.54.
First, you have to multiply 2.7 miles times .20 miles. It gives you .54, which you are supposed to add 2.00 to it for every ride.

c =0.20m + 2.00

Where c is the cost and m = number of miles,

For a 2.7 mile ride, m = 2.7

c  = 0.20m + 2.00,    m = 2.7

c = 0.20*2.7 + 2

c = 0.54 + 2

c = 2.54

Charge for the ride = $2.54

I hope this helps.
