Data:

• Fixed fee: $2.50

,

• Additional: $2.70 per mile

Procedure:

The relationship the problem is describing is a linear one with the form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

In this case, we have a fixed fee that is represented by b in the linear equation, and an additional fee represented by m, which depends on the miles (x) travels.

Thus, the equation would be:

[tex]y=2.7x+2.5[/tex]

Based on this equation, you can replace any value of miles (x) given to calculate the total price (y).
