Question

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

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Red taxi : y = 2x + 2

Green taxi : y = x + 5

Y are the costs of a ride, X are the miles of a ride.

The y-intercepts are the cost of just getting into a cab.

So, that is $2 for a red cab and $5 for a green cab.

Every mile with a red cab costs $2, while every mile with a green cab costs $1.

Hope this helps :)
