the cost that proposed by the taxi company $2 for the taxi drop plus and $1.50 for each mile driven can be express as c= 1.5m + 2                                                                             the cost that proposed by the taxi company $1 for the taxi drop plus and $1.75 for each mile driven can be express as c= 1.75 m + 1                                                                         Solving these two equations , m = 4 and c = 8                                                                                                                                                                                                                        where m represents miles driven and c represents cost.
