Aisha is ordering a taxi from an online taxi service. She has to pay a flat charge just to
order the taxi, and then has to pay per mile, depending on how far she travels. She
wrote an equation to represent her total cost, y = 2.8x + 2, where y represents the
total cost in dollars and cents, and a represents the number of miles she travels,
What could the number 2 represent in the equation?

Answer:

The flat charge

Step-by-step explanation:

The number 2 could represent the flat charge in the equation because a flat charge never changes. In the equation, the 2 (y-intercept) is the only term that does not change. The value of 2.8x depends on what the value of x is, and the value of y depends on what the value of 2.8x + 2 is. Therefore, 2 could represent the flat charge in the equation.
