Question

Check out this cost equation for the cost of a cab ride when m miles are driven: C = 5.1 +2.6m. What does the 5.1 represent? What does the 2.6 represent? Solve the equation for m. Put that equation here.

Based on that formula, enter a formula in cell B2 that will give the number of miles that can be driven for the cost shown in cell A2. You will need to use grouping symbols carefully. This equation reverses the original. Here you would enter the dollars and see how many miles you can go. To know that you have the formula correct, the value in B2 should be 0 miles.
