A.

Denote by x the number of miles traveled.

Denote by p(x) the price paid


p(x) = 2 + 0.75x

B.


p(12) = 2 + 0.75(12) \\ p(12) = 2 + 9 \\ p(12) = 11 \: dollars

C.

No he is not, since they stated that the price is equal to two more than the product of 0.75 and the distance traveled, in this case represented by the variable m
