5. two sides of a triangle are equal in length. the length of the third side is one meter
less than twice the sum of the lengths of the other two sides. find the length of the
longest side of the triangle if its perimeter is 35 meters.

believe it or not anna is correct good job anna give me a fist bump there u go gal

answer-

a. the total cost of a taxi ride includes an initial charge of approximately $3.30

solution-

in the graph,

x axis represents the distance traveled and

y axis represents the total fare

the best fit line intersects the y axis approximately at 3.30 or y-intercept is 3.30. at x=0, i.e when the taxi is still, the value of y or the cost of the fare is 3.30. that means $3.30 is the fixed charge which will be levied along with the other fare.

the slope of the line represent the cost per mile. as the best fit line is straight line, so the price per mile is constant.
