Question

taxi fare charges rupees 50 for the first two kilometres and rupees 16 per kilometre for subsequent distance covered. taking distance covered X kilometre and Total fare as y. write a linear equation in two variables and find the fare for the distance of 16 km​

Answer 1

Answer:

(50×2)+16 (x-2)=y

100+16x-32-y=0

16x-y+68=0

now if total distance is 16 km÷

16×16-y+68=0

256+68=y

so÷

y=324 rupees
