In London, the charge of a tour bus consists of a fixed rental price plus a per kilometre rate, that depends on the distance of

ella [17]

Using a linear function, we have that:

a) The fixed cost is of $10.

b) The equation is: C = 10 + 12d.

c) The cost of an 18 km trip is $226.

d) The distance traveled is of 20 km.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

For this problem, the slope is of m = 12. When d = 5, C(d) = 70, hence we find the fixed cost as follows:

C(d) = 12d + b

70 = 60 + b

b = 10.

Hence the equation is:

C(d) = 12d + 10.

For a trip of 18 km, d = 18, hence the cost is:

C(12) = 12 x 18 + 10 = $226.

When the cost is of $250, the distance is found as follows:

250 = 12d + 10

12d = 240

d = 240/12

d = 20 km.

The distance Train A travels is represented by d = 67t, where d is the distance in kilometers and t is the time in hours. The di

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Train A's unit rate is 67 km per hour.

Train B's unit rate is 75 km per hour.

Train B is faster than Train A

Step-by-step explanation:

Train A

Distance traveled by Train A is represented by :

$d=67t$

where $d$ represents distance traveled in kilometers and $t$ is the time in hours.

To find the unit rate of Train A, we will plugin $t=1$ and get the distance traveled by Train A in 1 hour which will be the unit rate of Train A in km/hr.

$d=67(1)$

$d=67$

So, distance traveled by Train A in 1 hour = 67 km

∴ Train A's unit rate is 67 km per hour.

Train B

For Train B, we are given the table for the time in hours and distance traveled in that duration.

Taking time =2 hours the distance traveled by Train B= 75 km

To find distance traveled in 1 hour we apply unitary method.

$2\ hr = 150\ km$

So $1\ hr = \frac{150}{2}\ km = 75\ km$

So, distance traveled by Train B in 1 hour = 75 km

∴ Train B's unit rate is 75 km per hour.

Difference in units rates = $75-67=8\ km/hr$

On comparing their unit rate i.e. the speed of the trains we find out that Train B is faster than Train A by 8 km/hr
