Question

the diamond taxi company charges an initial fee of $3.00 plus $2.00 per mile for each ride.

a) using the table show the cost (C) of taking a taxi 0-5 miles

number of miles cost(c)
1 ?
2 ?
3 ?
4 ?
5 ?

can you show me to do the number of miles for 1 and then i'll try to do 2-5

Answer 1

c=Cost
m=miles
c=$3.00+(m*$2.00)
If the number of miles=1

c=$3.00+(1*$2.00)
c=$3.00+$2.00
c=$5.00

Answer 2

so if m=2 then c= 3.00+(2*2.00)

so that's 3.00+4.00
so c=7
