Answer 1

Answer:

y=2.50+175*(x-1)

$4727.50

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2.50+175*(x-1)

The first km costs 2.50 which is why you add it. You do x-1 because the 175 is charged for each additional km. So, if you traveled one km it would cost 2.50.

y=2.5+175*(28-1)

y=2.5+175*27

y=2.5+4725

y=$4727.50
