a taxi charges rs 20 for the first km and @ rs 12 per km for subsequent distance covered. taking the ditance covered as x km and total fare rs y,write a linear equation depicting the relation in x and y.

Answered by admin @


Answer:

y = 12x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that it costs Rs. 20 for the first km and Rs. 12 per km for every subsequent km.

So It is also given that, Distance covered is x and Total Fare is Rs. y

Linear Equation according to the question would be:

Total Distance = x

Rate for first km is 12. So Rate for remaining distance is ?

⇒ Remaining Distance = ( x - 1 )

⇒ Rate = 12 ( x - 1) = 12x - 12

Total Fare for the whole distance is Rs. y

⇒ y = 12x -12 + 20

⇒ y = 12x + 8

This is the required equation.

Hope it helped !!
