A business traveler was wondering how the taxi meters in a particular city work. She kept track of the distance traveled on each of her taxi rides and the amount she paid for each of her fares. She then plotted the data points and found that while they didn't exactly form a line (probably due to varying times spent stuck in
traffic), they could be approximated by the line y = 1.75x+2.25, where x is the distance traveled in miles and y is the fare in dollars. According to the model, about
how much will a 3 mile ride cost?
A. $5.25

B. $6.75

С. $7.50

D. $8.50
