Answer:

The linear equation is y = 6 x + 9

The graph is attached down

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information:

The cost of 1st km is 9 Rs

The cost of every kilometer after the first is 6 Rs

x represents the number of km

y represents the total cost of x km

The form of the linear equation is

y = m x + b, where

  • m is the slope of the line (rate of change)
  • b is the y-intercept (initial value)

From the given information above

m = 6 Rs/km

b = 9 Rs

Substitute them in the form of the equation

y = 6 x + 9

The graph:
