Answer» Letthe fixed chargefor taxi= Rs x Andvariable cost per Km= Rs y Total cost= fixed charge + variable charge Given that for a distance of 10 km, the charge paid is Rs 105 x + 10 y= 105… (1) x= 105 – 10 y Given that for a journey of 15 km, the charge paid is Rs 155 x + 15 y= 155 Plug the value of x we get 105 – 10 y + 15 y= 155 5y= 155 – 105 5y= 50 Divide by 5we get y= 50 / 5= 10 Plug this value in equation (1) we get x= 105 – 10 * 10 x= 5 People have to pay for traveling a distance of 25 km = x + 25 y = 5 + 25*10 = 5 + 250 =255Please like the solution 👍 ✔️ |
