A rental car company charges $150.00 for a weekly rental and an additional $0.20 for each mile driven. The function rule C = 0.20+ 150.00 describes the relationship between the number of miles driven m and the total cost C. If the rental car can only be driven a maximum of 200 miles, what is a reasonable graph of the function rule?

200 = 150 + 0.20x
This would be the equation for graphing.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that a rental car company charges $150.00 for a weekly rental and an additional $0.20 for each mile driven

i.e. C = 150+0.20m where m stands for one mile driven.

i.e. even if a single mile is not driven also fixed rental of 150 dollars have to be paid

m can take a maximum of 200 miles

i.e. Domain = values of m =


0\leq m\leq 200

Since m has a ceiling of 200, Cost can take maximum value of

C(200) = 150+40 =190

Thus C will lie between 150 and 190 only

So graph will have domain as between 0 and 200 and range as between 150 and 190
