A taxi cab driver charges an initial flag-drop fee of $3.05, plus $1.25 for each mile driven.

Which equation correctly models this situation?
y=1.25x−3.05
y=3.05x+1.25
y=1.25x+3.05
y=3.05x−1.25

The 3rd one is correct. No matter how many miles are driven, the taxi charges you $3.05 so this must be added to your total. $1.25 is added for every mile driven so this is dependent on x.
