Ataxi company charges a flat fee of 3.00 for using the taxi and 0.75 per mile

The function of cost with respect to distance cover is

y = $0.75 per miles x + $3

The given statement is proportional to each other .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The taxi charges flat fee = $3.00

The rate of charge = $0.75 per miles

Now, According to question

Total output cost is the function of total input number of miles distance

I.e

The total cost = $ y

The total distance cover  = x miles

So, The equation for the fare can be written as :

The total cost = The rate of charge × total distance cover + The taxi charges flat fee

I.e  y = $0.75 per miles × x + $3.00

So, from the function we can calculate the total cost for total distance cover.

Now, as for given value of x, the value of y changes , so the given statement is proportional to each other

Hence The function of cost with respect to distance cover is y = $0.75 per miles  x + $3    . And The given statement is proportional to each other .
