Question

At Jason's car rental shop it costs a flat rate of $100 to rent a car, which covers the cost of driving up to 75 miles. For every mile over 75 it costs an additional $0.10. Write a piecewise function modeling this situation, where x represents the miles driven and y represents the total cost.

Answer 1

`y=\left\{ \begin{array}{rcl} 100 & \mbox{for} & x \leq 75 \\ 100+0.10(x-75) & \mbox{for} & x > 75 \end{array} \right .`
