8. A taxi company charges passengers $1.75 for a ride, no matter how long the ride is, and an additional $0.40 for each mile traveled. The rule c = 0.40m + 1.75 describes the relationship between the number of miles m and the total cost of the ride c.
a. What is the charge for a 1-mile ride?
b. What is the charge for a 2.7-mile ride?

A. $2.15; $2.83

B. $0.40; $5.13

C. $0.40; $1.08

D. $1.75; $2.15

A. $2.15; $2.83

Step-by-step explanation:

2.83

c = 0.4. * 2.7 + 1.75

=> c = 2.83

4(2.7)+1.75

1.08+1.75=2.83

$2.83 is correct.

c=0.40(2.7)+1.75

c=1.08+1.75

c=2.83

2.83 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Fixed charges made by the taxi company for a ride =  

Additional charge for each mile travelled =  

Hence equation for cost is given by

where m is thenumber of miles travelled.

To find out the charge for a 2.7 mile ride substitute m = 2.7

Total cost for 2.7 mile ride is 2.83 dollars
