We are given

y=3.75+1.5(x-1)

where

y is the cost in dollars

x is distance in dollars

now, we can find derivative

y'=\frac{d}{dx}\left(3.75+1.5\left(x-1\right)\right)

=\frac{d}{dx}\left(3.75\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(1.5\left(x-1\right)\right)

=0+1.5

so,

y'=0+1.5

So,

the rate of change of the cost in dollars with respect to the number of miles is 1.5.........Answer

To solve this you would divide until you can’t. I recommend staying in whole numbers:) I always divide by twos because I think it’s more efficient! 4 divided by 2 is 2 and 30 divided by 2 is 15 sooo (2 hours to 15) hope this helped!
