What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, that relates the cost compared to the miles traveled for a Green Cab?

Step-by-step explanation:

the general slope intercept form is

y = ax + b

a is the slope. it is expressed as ratio of y change / x change when going from one point to another.

b is the y-intercept (the point, where the line crosses the y-axis, meaning the y value when x=0).

we get b by using the point coordinates in the equation and solve for b.

we see costs is on the y axis, and miles is on the x axis.

so what points do we identify on the chart for the green taxi ?

there is right on the y-axis (0, 5). which is already our y-intercept.

and then let's pick e.g. the point where both lines intercept : (3, 8).

for the slope we look at the coordinate changes :

x changes by +3 (from 0 to 3).

y changes by +3 (from 5 to 8).

so, the slope is 3/3 = 1.

and again, the y- intercept is +5.

therefore, the line equation is

y = x + 5

meaning the cost of a fare is the number of miles plus 5.

Answer:

7y + 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of the negative sign to the left of the parentheses as being -1. Then apply the distributive property. The effect of a negative sign to the left of parentheses or a 1 to the left of parentheses is that each term inside the parentheses changes sign.

-(-7y - 24) = -1(-7y - 24) = (-1)(-7y) - (-1)(24) = 7y - (-24) = 7y + 24
