The equation is given as C=0.33m+20 where m is the number of miles and C is the cost in dollars.

a. The cost when number of miles is 0.

C=0.33(0)+20=20 dollars.

b. The cost when number of miles is 500 miles.

C=0.33(500)+20=185 dollars.

c. According to the equation given the slope is 0.33 and intercept is 20 from comparing with the general equation y=mx+c.

So the correct option is d.

d. The graph of the given function is

Hence the correct option is d.
