Grant is trying to make money to pay for college by taking a job with brian's bike taxis if baltimore. he has an agreement with brian to rent the bike for $35.00 a night. he charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them. if grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day, how many miles would he need to ride?

he would need to ride at least 13.3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount that Grant needs to make in a day is greater than or equal to $15.

He has an agreement with Brian to rent the bike for $35.00 a night.

He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them. If he transports the customers over x miles, his total revenue would be

3.75 × x = 3.75x

Profit = revenue - cost. Therefore,

his profit would be

3.75x - 35

Therefore,

3.75x - 35 ≥ 15

3.75x ≥ 15 + 35 = 50

x ≥ 50/3.75

x ≥ 13.3
