Question 888508: for a taxi ride, there is a fixed charge of 2.80 plus a charge of 2.15 per mile.
a) write a model for the total cost, C(x), to ride x miles in the taxi.
b) if sallys taxi ride costs 26.45 find the number of miles sally rode in the taxi Answer by josgarithmetic(39620) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The distance price is a slope, and the fixed charge is a vertical axis intercept. You have C(x) instead of y; you have x to mean distance of taxi trip. You are trying to formulate a linear function. Does that help you enough?
