Berts's cab company charges $1.00 plus an additional $3.00 per mile for a ride. Madeline's caby company charges $3.00 plus an additional $2.00 per mile for a ride. Write a system of linear equations that shows the cost in dollars, y, for a cab ride of x miles for each cab driver.

Hello There!

Bert's cab: 1 + 3x = y
Madeline's cab: 3 + 2x = y

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
