Question

In Los Angeles, a taxi owner charges $5 to rent a taxi and then $1 for each mile. Find the cost

Answer 1

Answer:

$15

Step-by-step explanation:

$1 every mile. He goes 10 miles. So 10 • 1

$10

The original starting cost is $5

Equation : C=5+1(10)

C=5+10

C=15

So the taxi would be $15

Hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

All in the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be a dollar for every mile traveled, in this case 10 dollars as Ms. Robinson travels 10 miles.

The starting cost would be 5 dollars to rent it and then 1 dollar for every mile.

Equation would be 1(x) + 5

The cost of Ms. Robinsons trip would be 1(10) + 5 = 15 dollars.
