Question

Taxi Cab Company B: $6.50 per ride and $0.50 per mile

Answer 1

Using the slope - intercept relation, the equation which represents the cost of cab ride is y = 0.5x + 6.50

• Cost per ride = $6.50
• Cost per mile = $0.50

Using the slope - intercept relation :

• y = bx + c

b = change in cost per mile

c = constant price added for every taxi ride

Hence, the expression can be written thus :

• y = 0.5x + 6.50
