The graph shows information about the costs of taxi journeys in France.

For each journey, there is a fixed charge plus a charge for the distance travelled.
a) How much is the fixed charge?

Jean makes two journeys by taxi.
One journey is 6km more than the other journey.
b) Work out the difference between the costs of these two journeys. ​

Respuesta :

The fixed charge is about 5 pound. For extra 6 km, extra cost is about 9 pound

What is a linear equation?

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

Where m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y.

From the graph:

The fixed charge is about 5 pound.

Using the point (0, 5) and (20, 35)

Charge per mile = (35 - 5) / (20 - 0) = 1.5 pound per mile

For extra 6 km, extra cost = 1.5 * 6 km = 9 pound
