the diamond taxi company charges an initial fee of $3.00 plus $2.00 per mile for each ride.

a) using the table show the cost (C) of taking a taxi 0-5 miles

number of miles cost(c)
1 ?
2 ?
3 ?
4 ?
5 ?

can you show me to do the number of miles for 1 and then i'll try to do 2-5

cost=3+2m when m=1, cost=5

so when m=3 then c is 2+2+2=7

Certainly! To find the cost of taking a taxi for 1 mile, we need to use the formula provided:

C = $3.00 (initial fee) + ($2.00 per mile)

For 1 mile:
C = $3.00 (initial fee) + ($2.00 per mile) x 1

Now we can substitute the values into the equation:

C = $3.00 + ($2.00 x 1)
C = $3.00 + $2.00
C = $5.00

Therefore, the cost of taking a taxi for 1 mile is $5.00.

Now you can continue and fill in the table for 2-5 miles using the same formula and substituting the appropriate values.
