Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
(0,5.25)(10,13.75)
slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope(m) = (13.75 - 5.25) / (10 - 0) = 8.5/10 = 0.85
y = mx + b
(0,5.25)...x = 0 and y = 5.25
slope(m) = 0.85
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y int
5.25 = 0.85(0) + b
5.25 = b
so ur equation is : y = 0.85x + 5.25 or C(t) = 0.85t + 5.25 <==
cost of a 12 min taxi ride.....sub in 12 for t
C(t) = 0.85t + 5.25
C(12) = 0.85(12) +5.25
C(12) = 10.20 + 5.25 = 15.45
so a 12 min ride would cost u : $ 15.45 <==

To begin, we can simplify the expression's denominator by finding a common denominator between the denominators of the fractions in the denominator. To make them compatible, we can convert

into

:

Next, we can simplify:

Finally, to cancel the denominator within the denominator, we can multiply the whole expression by

, or 1:

The expression simplifies to

, or

as a mixed number.
