Answer» here is your ans Step-by-step explanation: Total distance covered = x km. (GIVEN) Fair for 1st kilometre = RS.8 (Given) Fair for rest distance = (x 1) 5 (Since, it is given that except for first kilometre, the fare for subsequent distance is Rs 5 per km) Total fair = 8 + (x 1) 5 y = 8 + 5x 5 (Total fare is given to be y) y = 5x + 3 5x y + 3 = 0 This is the REQUIRED linear equation. |
