Answer:
$25.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume the traffic conditions that prevailed for a 49-mile taxi ride will be the same for a 36-minute taxi ride
Speed of taxi=49 miles/63 minutes=0.777777778 miles per minute
Distance for 36-minute ride=36*0.777777778
=28 miles
Cost per mile for a 49-mile taxi is 44.1/49=$0.9 per mile
Cost per minute for a 49-mile taxi=44.1/63=$0.7 per minute
For 36-minute drive, cost will be
36*0.7
=$25.2
Therefore, you require $25.2 for a 36-minute taxi ride
