Answer:

f = 100 + 0.133d

Explanation:

For each trip, they charge an initial fee of 100 in addition to a constant fee for each vertical meter climbed.

For example, for 3000 meters of climbing, they charged the additional constant fee of 400.

Therefore, per meter climbing they charges
(400)/(3000) = 0.133.

Therefore, if f represents the fee in dollars of a trip they climbed d vertical meters then we can model the situation as

f = 100 + 0.133d (Answer)
