Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

First 3 miles = flat rate

Subsequent miles = additional rate per mile x

Equation which represents the scenario :

10 + 2.50(x - 3)

If the amount charged by the taxi service for a certain trip is

10 + 2.50(x - 3)

Then. ;

10 = the flat rate charged for the first 3 seconds

2.50 = additional mile charge

x = total trip distance

Hence, (x - 3) = (total trip distance - first 3 miles) = additional miles traveled
