Question

A rental truck company charges a flat fee of $30 to rent the truck in addition to $0.25 per mile what is the slope of this graph $ per mile

Answer 1

0.25 dollars per mile

Explanation:

The slope of the graph represents the rate of change of the cost per mile, which is given by the coefficient of x in the equation of the line. In this case, the equation for the total cost of renting the truck in terms of the distance traveled (in miles) is:

Cost = 0.25x + 30

m = 0.25

So, the slope of this graph is 0.25 dollar per mile.
