To find the cost of a taxi ride for a given distance, we need to consider the initial charge and the additional charge per mile driven.Given:Initial charge:
1.75For a 9-mile ride:Cost of ride, 9 miles = Initial charge + (Additional charge per mile * Distance driven)Cost of ride, 9 miles =
1.75 * 9)Cost of ride, 9 miles =
15.75Cost of ride, 9 miles =
19.25.For a ride that is m miles long:Cost of ride, m miles = Initial charge + (Additional charge per mile * Distance driven)Cost of ride, m miles =
1.75 * m)Therefore, the cost of a ride that is m miles long is
1.75m.
