The table is an illustration of a linear function.

The description of the charges is: <em>A)  The ride requires a $14 initial fee, plus 50 cents per mile driven</em>

<em />

The base fee is the charges, when the number of miles is 0

From the table;

y = $14, when x = 0

So, the base fee is $14

Next, we calculate the slope (m)

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

From the table, we have:

m = \frac{16.5 - 14}{5-0}

m = \frac{2.5}{5}

m = 0.5

The above means that:

The cost per mile is $0.5 (i.e. 50 cents)

Hence, the description of the charges is: <em>A)  The ride requires a $14 initial fee, plus 50 cents per mile driven</em>

<em />

Answer:

-40 °F = -40 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) F = 1.8 C + 32

If the Fahrenheit and Celsius temperatures are the same, then

(2)        F = C     Substitute (2) into (1)

            C = 1.8C + 32     Subtract 1.8 C from each side

C – 1.8 C = 32                   Combine like terms

    -0.8C = 32                   Divide each side by -0.8

          C = -32/0.8

(3)      C = -40                  Substitute (3) into (1)

         F = 1.8(-40) + 32

         F = -72 + 32

        F = -40

So, -40 °F = -40 °C

The thermometer below shows that -40 °F = -40 °C.
