Question 500084: The Cost of a taxi ride begins with a flat fee,and then you are charged an additional amount for each mile. Write an equation to represent the total cost of the taxi ride. Answer by oberobic(2304) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! TC = total cost
VC = variable cost per mile
FC = fixed cost
.
TC = FC + VC per mile * number of miles
.
In a more "algebraic" way of writing,
.
t = total cost
f = fixed cost
v = variable cost
m = miles
.
t = f + v*m
