D. Taxi D is the better deal for the first 7.5 Miles

Answer 1

the correct answer is C. Taxi A is the better deal for the first 7.5 miles.

Answer 2

D. Taxi B is the better deal for the first 7.5 Miles

Explanation:

We can see in the graph that the lines A and B intersect at 7.5 miles.

We can also see that the initial cost of taxi A is greater than that of taxi B.

Before 7.5 miles the cost of taxi A is greater than the cost of taxi B.

Hence, taxi B is less expensive than taxi A for first 7.5 miles.

So, the accurate statement is option D - Taxi B is the better deal for the first 7.5 Miles.
