An auto rickshaw charges 25 rupees for first two kilometres and thereafter rupees 8 per km. {1} write an algebraic equation for the fare of x km journey. {x<2} ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A1=25

common difference=8

25, 25+x, 25+2x....

Answer 2

Equation for the fare of x km of journey, F(x) = 25 + 8x

Step-by-step explanation:

An auto rickshaw charges 25 rupees for first two kilometres.

There after rupees 8 per kilometre.

Total fare = Fare for first two kilometres + Fare per kilometre

F(x) = 25 + 8x  

Where x = distance in kilometres.

If x = 1, then fare = 25 + 8 x 1 = 25 + 8 = 33 rupees.

Hence, equation for the fare of x km of journey, F(x) = 25 + 8x
