A taxi ride costs $3 plus $2.50 per mile. Write and graph an equation that represents the total cost of a taxi ride. Let m​ represent number of miles and c represent the total cost (in dollars) of the taxi ride. What is the total cost of a five-mile taxi ride?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is 3 + 2.50m = c.

Step-by-step explanation:

You would use the slope equation: y = mx+b where y is equal to the total cost of a taxi ride, in dollars and m is equal to the number of miles. $3 is your base cost which represents your y-intercept or your b and $2.50 represents your slope.

Hope this helps! :)
