    10 miles.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The island taxi charges $5 for initial fee and $2 per mile.

    For the island taxi to be $25 it would have to drive for 10 miles. (25-5=20) due to the initial fee puts you at 20. 20:2 is 10. Meaning 10 miles for the island taxi.

    Since the lyft charges a flat rate of $25 for any distance the only distance that matters is the island taxi.

    Your answer is 10 miles.
