Answer:

c=.79m+40

Explanation:

If .79 is charged for every mile driven, then we would multiply the number of miles driven by .79, resulting in .79m. Then, we could add the constant 40, because it costs 40$ to rent the truck in the first place. Then, if that is equal to the total cost, we would put c= in front, resulting in the equation c=.79m+40.

Hope this helps!
