the taxi fare in a city is charged as per the rates stated below

rate for the first kilometer of journey is Rs 5 and the rate for the subsequent distance covered is Rs 4 per km.Taking the distance covered as 'x' and total fare as Rs 'y' . Wrte the linear equation in variables x AND Y to express the above statement .

Draw the graph for the linear equation.

  • 0

the distance covered = x km

total taxi fare = rs y

fare for the first km =RS 8

the remaining distance =(x-1)

fare for x-1 km =5 X x-1

total taxi fare =8+5 X (x-1)

by the given condition y= 8+5x-5

y=5x+3

you havre got the linear eqation i hope now you can draw he graph
