Question

The taxi fare in a city is as follows: For the first kilometre, the fare is ₹20 and for the subsequent distance it is ₹6per km. Taking the distance covered as
x km and total fare as ₹y, write a linear equation for this information and draw its graph
If you answer this i will mark you brainliest

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 20 + 6(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

since,

Total distance covered = x km

Fare of first kilometer = 20 ₹

Fare of the remaining distance = 6(x-1)

Total Fare = y

Total fare = Fare of first kilometer + Fare of remaining distance

Therefore,

y = 20 + 6(x-1)

For graph just substitude the value of 'x' to get the value of 'y' or you can do vice-versa.
