Question

The annual fixed costs of owning a small sedan are $4407, assuming the car is completely paid for. The cost to drive the car is approximately $0.17 per mile. Write a linear equation that relates the cost C and the number x miles driven annually.

Answer 1

Answer:

y(Cost)=.17x(x=miles)+4407

y=.17x+4407

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of the vehicle is 4407$ fixed, with .17$ per mile. A liner equation, y=mx+b can be substituted with m being the cost per mile and 4407$ being the fixed annual value. Y is the total Cost of everything.
