Question

A man hires a taxi to cover a certain distance. The fare is Rs 20 for first kilometer, and Rs 10 for subsequent kilometers. Taking total distance covered as x km, and total fare as Rs y, write a linear equation for this representation -

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, 

Total distance = X km 

Total fare = Rs. Y 

According to given condition, 

First km = Rs. 20 

Therefore remaining distance after 1st km would be (X-1)km. 

Fare for remaining distance is Rs.10/km 

Hence cost would be 

10 × (X-1) Rs. 

Total cost= 20+ 10×(X-1) 

Y = 20 + 10X-10

Y=10+10X 

Linear equation -- 10X-Y+10=0
