Anew york city taxi charges $3 per ride plus an additional $0.50 per mile which function below shows how to calculate the total cost of a taxi ride that is x miles long
a.) f(x)=$3x+$0.50
b.) f(x)=$3x-$0.50
c.) f(x)=$0.50x+$3
d.) f(x)=$0.50x-$3

The correct answer is Choice C.

Step-by-step explanation: The cost of the ride is .50 per mile, plus $3.00 for each ride. In order to calculate it, the correct formula is going to multiply the number of miles, represented by x, by .50, and then add $3 for the ride.

Choice C is doing just that. $.50x + $3

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
