Given:
Fare of a taxi journey is given by [tex]f=cm[/tex], c= cost per kilometre, m= number of kilometres travelled.
c=40p, m=8km.
To find:
The fare charged.
Solution:
Fare of a taxi journey is given by
[tex]f=cm[/tex] ...(i)
where,
c= cost per kilometre
m= number of kilometres travelled.
Putting c=40 and m=8 in (i), we get
[tex]f=(40)(8)[/tex]
[tex]f=320[/tex]
Therefore, the fare of a taxi journey is 320 p.
