If you were an independent taxi driver and you wanted to maximize charges to raise money for your child, would you charge based on distance or displacement? Explain.
Vahan: If I were a taxi driver I would want to charge by distance because the customer could avoid paying if I did a round trip because there would be zero to no displacement.
Mann: If I were an independent taxi driver, I would base my charge on distance, because the passenger would pay me less if I had to take a detour because of a road work or anything else. Also I am also wasting my gas and going the long way.
