Question

the taxi fare in acity is as follows:For the first kilomiter,the fare is ₹8and for the subsequent distance,it is ₹5 per km.taking the distance covered as x km total fare as ₹y,write a linear equation for this imformation and draw its graph​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total distance covered = x

Total fare = y

Fare for the first kilometer = 8 per km

fare after the first 1 km= 5 per km

If x is the total distance y = 8 + 5(x - 1)

y = 8 + 5x - 5

y = 3 + 5x

solutions: for x = 0

y = 3+5*0 =3

for x = 1

y = 3+5*1 =8

points to be ploted are (0,3) (8,1)
