When visiting Baltimore, MD, you
need to rent a taxi to get from your
hotel to the National Aquarium. The
taxi company charges a flat fee of
$3.00 for using the taxi and $0.75
per mile. Write an equation in slope-
intercept form that models this situation.

Y=0.75x+3

15. Use your equation from problem
14 to calculate the cost for using the
taxi for 18 miles.

$16.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x represents miles, substitute 18 in for x

y=0.75x+3

y=0.75(18)+3

y=13.5+3

y=16.5

So, it costs $16.50 to use the taxi for 18 miles

Hope this helps! :)

answer: -2+√x,-2-√x

i hope this , i don't know if you're looking for a pair or not.

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
