The cost, c(x), for a taxi ride is given by c(x) = 3x + 2.00, where x is the number of minutes.
On a piece of paper, graph c(x) = 3x + 2.00. Then determine which answer matches the graph you drew, including the correct axis labels,

Graph D is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of is attached.

The y-axis of the graph represents the cost, and the x-axis represents the number of minutes.

Also, the slope of is 2, and the y-intercept is 2.

Now let us look at the choices given and determine which graph represents the function .

The first graph has the slope of 2, and a y-intercept of 2, but the y-axis represents minutes, and the x-axis represents cost—this does not match our graph.

The second graph has y-intercept of 3—also not our graph.

The third graph also has a y-intercept of 3—this does match our graph either.

The fourth graph has a y-intercept of 2 and a slope of 2, and its y-axis represents the cost and x-axis represents the minutes—this perfectly matches our graph.

Therefore, the graph that matches our graph is D.

step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved first with pythagorean theorem, which tells us to square both legs of the triangle and sum it. this will be equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

the hypotenuse is the side "opposite" the 90 degree angle, which is x.

so we can write using pythagorean theorem,

simplifying:

to further simplify this radical, we need to use the property  

thus
