A cab company charges a $4 boarding rate in addition to its meter which is $1.50 for every mile. Write a linear equation which models this. Use the equation to determine the total fare for a trip that is 2 miles, 3 miles and 5 miles.

Vocaloid:

total cost = boarding rate + (price per mile)(number of miles) use a variable like x to represent number of miles, use something like y to represent the total cost, then fill in the boarding rate and price per mile once your equation is done, plug in x = 2, x = 3, and x = 5 to get the total fares for the 2,3,5 mile trips
