Corey is taking a bus to her grandparent's house. The fee is
$12.00 plus $0.12 per mile. It is 58 miles to her grandparent's
house. Her parents send her with $15.00. If her grandparents
are planning on paying the balance when she arrives, how
much will they owe?

Answer :

Answer: $3.96

Explanation: The bus trip is $12.00 + $0.12 per mile. The trip is 58 miles so the trip in total will cost $12.00 + ($0.12 • 58 miles) = $18.96. If her parents sent her with $15.00, her grandparents will still need to pay $3.96 to finish it off ($18.96 - $15.00 = $3.96).
