Question

13 The taxi fare in a city is such that Rs:50
is fixed amount and Rs: 16 perkm is charged
Taking the distance covered aix km and
total fare as Rsiy write lineur equation
in n andy

Answer 1

Answer:

The linear equation is:y = 16x + 50 Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of the linear equation is:

y = mx + c

where:

y is the output of the function that we need to calculate

m is the rate of change of the function

x is the input of the function

c is the initial value of the function (output at zero input)

In the given problem, we have:

The output of the function (y) is the taxi fare

The input of the function (x) is the distance traveled

The rate of change of the function (m) is Rs 16 which represents the amount paid per each km

The initial value of the function (c) is Rs 50 which is the base fare before the taxi travels any km

Substitute with these givens in the general form of the equation, we get:

Total fare = Rate per km * distance traveled + base fare

y = 16x + 50 Rs

Hope this helps :)
