Answer 1

let us assume that the first company the cab flat rate is 5$ and the cap driver charges 2$ per mile .for the second company the cab flat rate is 3$ and the cab driver charges 3$ per mile.

a. the company charges per ride at least 5$ and an extra 2$ per mile

b.the equation we will choose is slope intercept since we know the

y-intercept which is the cab flat rate .

y=mx+b

where

m :is the slope

b:is the y-intercept

y:total amount

x. is the milage

total amount=2x+5.

c.the slope will be 2$ which is the change in amount per mile.the y-intercept will be the cab's flat rate.
