Question

What model describes the relationship between miles driven and the total cost of a rental car when you pay $50.00 per day and $0.25 per mile?
linear
cubic
quadratic
exponential

Answer 1

This is a linear equation with y-intercept $50 and slope $0.25/mile:

TC = $50 + ($0.25)x, where x is the number of miles driven.

Answer 2

Answer:

Linear model

Step-by-step explanation:

you pay $50.00 per day and $0.25 per mile

Initial cost is 50 and cost per mile is 0.25.

Let x be the number of miles driven

Total cost = cost per mile * number of miles driven + initial cost

Total cost = 0.25x + 50

It represents a linear equation

So Linear model describes the relationship between miles driven and the total cost of a rental car
