Question

20 POINTS You are travelling in New York City and you need to take a cab from the airport to your hotel. A taxi company charges a flat fee of $2.00 and an additional $0.75 per mile. The graph below shows points representing the total cost of the taxi ride.

Which equation best represents the total cost of the cab ride, y, and the distance, x, that you have traveled?
A. y = 0.75x + 2
B. y = 2x + 0.75
C. y = 0.75x - 2
D. y = 4.25x

Answer 1

A is the correct answer

Explanation:

Answer 2
