Answer: y = x - 5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
"Eliminate the parameter" means we want to eliminate the <em>extra </em>variable and rewrite it ias one equation that only contains x, y, <em>and possibly a constant.</em>
<em />
The extra variable in the equations is "t". Manipulate one of the equations to solve for t². Then substitute t² = _____ it into the other equation.
x = t² + 3 → x - 3 = t²
y = t² - 2
y = (x - 3) - 2
y = x - 5
Taxi A
1mile £3.50+£1.75=£5.25
Taxi B
1mile £1.25+£2.00=£3.25
Taxi A
2miles £3.50+£3.50=£7.00
Taxi B
2miles £1.25+£4.00=£5.25
Taxi A
3miles £3.50+£5.25=£8.75
Taxi B
3miles £1.25+£6.00=£7.25
Taxi A
4miles £3.50+£7.00=£10.50
Taxi B
4miles £1.25+£8.00=£9.25
Taxi A
5miles £3.50+£8.75=£12.25
Taxi B
5miles £1.25+£10.00=£11.25
Taxi A
6miles £3.50+£10.50=£14.00
Taxi B
6miles £1.25+£12.00=£13.25
Taxi A
7miles £3.50+£12.25=£15.75
Taxi B
7miles £1.25+£14.00=£15.25
Taxi A
8miles £3.50+£14.00=£17.50
Taxi B
8miles £1.25+£16.00=£17.25
Taxi A
9miles £3.50+£15.75=£19.25 (the same)
Taxi B
9miles £1.25+£18.00=£19.25 (the same)
^^^
They would have to drive 9 miles for the taxi to cost the same.
Hope this helped, this is the longest way to work it out but also the simplest.
