Question

PLEASE HELP!!

I can pay $4.50 for a 2-mile taxi ride or $8 for 7 miles ride. At this rate, how much would an 11-mile ride cost?

Slope intercept

Answer 1

The answer is $10.80

Explanation:

It goes up $0.70 every mile and the flat fee is $3.10.

The equation 3.1 + 0.7(x) when x is the number of miles traveled.

Substitute 11 for x and get 3.1 + 0.7(11).

The answer is $10.80
