The graph below shows data gathered from 13 taxi riders about the total fare they paid and the distance traveled. the equation of the line of best fit is shown below. what does the y-intercept of this line represent? a. the total cost of a taxi ride includes an initial charge of approximately $3.30. b. the total cost of a taxi ride includes an initial charge of approximately $2.40. c. the total cost of a taxi ride increases at a rate of approximately $3.30 per mile. d. the total cost of a taxi ride increases at a rate of approximately $2.40 per mile.

answer-

a. the total cost of a taxi ride includes an initial charge of approximately $3.30

solution-

in the graph,

x axis represents the distance traveled and

y axis represents the total fare

the best fit line intersects the y axis approximately at 3.30 or y-intercept is 3.30. at x=0, i.e when the taxi is still, the value of y or the cost of the fare is 3.30. that means $3.30 is the fixed charge which will be levied along with the other fare.

the slope of the line represent the cost per mile. as the best fit line is straight line, so the price per mile is constant.

step-by-step explanation:

|ab| = 1.4 = 4

h = 1.4 = 4

a(abc) area = 4.4 = 16/2 = 8

area of abc = 8 cm^2

good luck ! ; )

47 - 90 = 43

43 - 180 = x

x = 137
