Peter’s taxi charges $5 plus $0.30 per mile for fare in a city. Ann’s taxi charges $8 plus $0.20 per mile for fare in the city. What will be the linear equation for the charges if you use Ann’s taxi?y = 0.20x - 8y = 8x + 0.20y = 8x - 0.20y = 0.20x + 8

Respuesta :

Given: Peter's taxi charges $5 plus $0.30 per mile for a fare in a city. Ann's taxi charges $8 plus $0.20 per mile for fare in the city.

Required: Find out the linear equation for the charges if you use Ann's taxi.

Explanation: The fixed charge for Ann's taxi is $0.20. Let the total distance covered be x miles. Hence the total fare y will be

[tex]y=0.20x+8[/tex]

Final Answer: Option D is correct.
