Answer:

Felipe drove  the truck for 1.26  miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Base fee = $14.95

Additional charge for each mile driven =  87 cents

Amount Felipe paid  when he returned the truck = $124.57

To Find:

How many miles did he drive the truck =?

Solution:

Let  number of miles  Felipe drove be X

Then according to the question,

Base fare + 87(number of miles driven) = 124.57

Substituting the known values,

14.95 + 87(x) = 124.57

124.57- 14.95 =  87 x

109.62 = 8x

x = \frac{109.62}{87}

x = 1.26
