Question

Sarah is renting a car for her weekend trip to the mountains,Fill in the blanks so that the functions below, written to represent this situation, are correct. If necessary, answer in terms of a decimal, rounded to the nearest hundredth. ƒ(x) =____x +____.

Answer 1

So here is the answer to the given question above. Analyzing the given figure, we can see that at 0 miles, the cost is 25. Between 0 and 40 miles, the cost rises by 10. Therefore, the function that would represent this situation would be this: f(x) = (10/40)x+25
f(x) = 1/4 *x+ 25
f(x) = 0.25x + 25
