Grant takes an Uber from his hotel to a restaurant. The cost of the Uber is a $2.95 initial charge plus $2.25 per mile. Problem Which equation can be used to find y, the total cost of the trip, if x represents the number of miles of the trip?

Given:

Initial charges = $2.95

Additional charges = $2.25 per mile.

To find:

The equation for the given situation.

Solution:

Let y be the total cost of the trip, if x represents the number of miles of the trip.

Additional charges for 1 mile = $2.25

Additional charges for x miles = $2.25x

We know that,

Total charges = Initial charges + Additional charges

Therefore, the required equation for the given situation is .

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,
