Question

a commuter pays 20.00 for a tricycle ride for the first 5km and an additional 0.75 every succeding distance d in kilometer represent the situation function

Answer 1

Answer:

for every succeeding distance d in kilometer. Represent the situation as function F(d)=20, if 0<d≤5

Answer 2

Answer:

The function that represents the given situation is P = 20 for d < 0, and P = 20 + 0.75d for d > 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assumption,

Let the payment function be P

Given,

A commuter pays 20.00 for a tricycle ride for the first 5km and an additional 0.75 for every succeeding distance d in kilometers.

To find,

The relation between P and d

Calculation,

Now we will consider the case where the commutator travels 5 km.

So the function for this case will be:

P = 20 + 0(d) for d < 0

Now for the 2nd case where the commutator pays 0.75 for every succeeding distance d in kilometers.

P = 20 + 0.75d where d > 0

Therefore, the function that represents the given situation is P = 20 for d < 0, and P = 20 + 0.75d for d > 0.
