a. For the first company, express in words the amount the cab company charges per ride and per mile.
Charges per ride $3.00 per mile $0.50
b. Write an equation in slope-intercept, point-slope, or standard form. Explain why you chose the form you did.

b. cost = $.50 (miles) + $3
I don't get it so would the equation be y=3+.50?
What does the slope mean in the context of the problem?
Task 3
Cabs use a valuable commodity—gas! Research average gas prices from 2005–
2015 for the city you chose.
a. Create a table showing the average gas price each year.
b. Create a scatter plot of the data in your table.
c. What equation models the data? What are the domain and range of
the equation? Explain how you determined your answers.
d. Is there a trend in the data? Does there seem to be a positive correlation, a negative correlation, or neither?
How much do you expect gas to cost in 2020? Explain.
