The amount that would a taxi ride cost for 7 miles is $7.75 and The amount that would a taxi ride cost that is m miles long is $(2.5 + 0.75m).
What is the equation?
Equations are statements in mathematics that have two algebraic expressions on either side of the equals (=) sign. It shows that the expressions printed on the left and right sides have an equal relationship.
Given:
The taxi charges $2.50 just for the pickup and then an additional $0.75 per mile driven,
Write the equation for the following statement,
y = 2.5 + 0.75x
Here, y is the total amount and x is the number of miles,
Calculate the cost of the ride, put x = 7
y = 2.5 + 0.75 × 7
y = 7.75
Calculate the cost of the ride, put x = m
y = 2.5 + 0.75m
