Question

For the first kilometer, the fare is ₹5 and for successive distance it is ₹2 per kilometer.

Taking

the distance covered as x km and total fare as ₹y, write a linear equation and find two

solutions for this equation.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Fare for first kilometer = Rs.5

Fare for next successive distance per km - Rs.2

Total distance = x

Total fare = y

Distance covered at Rs.2/km = (x-1)

Therefore the linear equation would be

y = 5 + 2(x-1)

y = 5 + 2x - 2

y = 3 +2x
